Hello,

I have been testing some code that I have just ported from SFL 2.3 to 2.4.
In SFL 2.3 it was possible to use the CML to validate a certification path
from a user certificate to a trusted certificate that was not self-signed.
This did not work with SFL 2.0.1.  However, with SFL 2.4 it does not work
either.  The problem would appear to be that the CML doesn't trust the CRL
that was also signed with the non-self-signed CA certificate, and because it
doesn't trust the CRL it reports the revocation status of the user
certificate as unconfirmed.

Can anyone comment on this please?
