I would simply patch Mozilla::CA to have SSL_ca_file() returning the Debian directory 
/usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla instead of the cacert.pem file. That would avoid to patch 
third-parties code that eventually use explicitly the modules. 
This is compatible with the IO::Socket::SSL module.

Does it make sense?
