Later versions[1] of OpenSSL will (mistakenly) complain that if subject text == 
issuer text, then the certificate is self-signed (even if it isn't).

[1] I haven't narrowed down exactly which; 0.9.8 and 1.0.0 generally don't 
exhibit this problem, whereas 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 generally do.

A more detailed explanation (with examples) can be found here:

Please let me know if you have any questions, and I'd be happy to elaborate.


Sincerely,
Matt Bogosian
