ssl connection issues

Hello,
 
I recently configured Postgresql 9.0.9 with SSL only "on" and all its needed server certificates.
I then created the client certificates and started working with them from a windows client.
 
At first I used them with tools like Navicat, just specified the 3 certs files (key,crt and root.crt) in the ssl pane, worked fine.
 
Then I tried with ODBC, placed the files in %APPDATA%/postgresql with correct names (postgresql.key, postgresql.crt, root.crt), created the connection and tested it, worked fine.
 
Last I tried with jdbc, thinking it would have been so easy: I'm fighting for 2 days with lots of different issues.
After some messing, I also finally discovered that, different from odbc, it would look for a pk8 file (why this difference?).
I created the pk8 file on the server from the original key used for odbc, with the command:
# openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -in client.key -out client.pk8 -outform DER -nocrypt
placed the pk8 file in 
%APPDATA%/postgresql and launched my test java connection:
 
Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://myhost:5432/mydb?ssl=true&loggerLevel=DEBUG&sslfactory=org.postgresql.ssl.jdbc4.LibPQFactory&sslmode=require","user","pass");
 
And now I get this:

Tried both with jdk1.7 and jdk1.8 and openjdk1.8.
 
Any idea?
