Well, I'll be darned!

Using ^J instead of ENTER / ^M to terminate the passphrase will get around this bug in the ca.c module.

OpenSSL now stops at the "Sign the certificate" query and a Y response works. I have a 01.pem in my newcerts directory. And it looks good.

How do I write this up so that it can be fixed in the next version of OpenSSL?
