There isn't any.
The file uses an old broken format which messses up things like
BMPStrings too. Changing it is problematical because any existing
index.txt files would become invalid. Its also difficult to convert
because the old format doesn't contain the necessary information. It
would however be possible to use a new format if the corresponding
certificates were all available.
