Subject: Firefox behavior with CDPs and AIAs

I know that FF allows you to choose a CRL and it will check status against that 
CRL when it finds a cert issued by the CRL issuer. Does anyone know if FF uses 
the CDP in the cert or the cert's issuer name as a key to find the CRL?

The reason I ask is in regards to partitioned CRLs, where a CA could, for 
example, have one CRL for odd serial numbers and one for even. The CA would put 
the appropriate CDP in each cert, but would that confuse FF?

Same question about OCSP responses and AIA.

Does anyone know the answers for IE?
