I've been looking at this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=174708
This is actually two separate bugs -- an EOF exception in Jessie, and an X509 parsing bug in Classpath. I believe the latter buglet was introduced here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/classpath-patches/2005-07/msg00156.html Also while looking at this I noticed that there is similar X509 parsing code in Jessie, and it seems to already have the appended change in it. I'd appreciate comments from people who actually understand this code in depth...
