This is somewhat old, but there's a relevant change.

There was never an example to demonstrate this was really due to the
certificate.  I got more convinced by
<https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/ticket/1423> that it is just due to the
CRL, as I originally assumed, and changed the sgeCA defaults in the
current release.  If anyone finds the same sort of trouble with that
change <https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/changeset/4294/sge>, please
report it with relevant details.

[There's an objection in the linked bug report that it's bad to use a
short CRL lifetime.  I still don't understand why in this context, but
I'm happy to be convinced.]
