I wasn't really paying close attention to this... but Anthony ran into
an issue (see the fedora-java list) with an application because we
don't install our own cacerts file.

He pointed out /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt (on Fedora, dunno
about other distros) -- but this file seems to be in a format not
understood by gkeytool.  Is that intentional?  It contains a number of
certificates; gkeytool stops after reading the first one.

FWIW this file comes from the openssl package.
