I may be wrong ... but I think the [ ca ] and [ CA_default ] sections only 
apply to the openssl ca command, not to arbitrary SSL connections. I think the 
certs dir is hardcoded at compile time (X509_CERT_DIR in crypto/cryptlib.h) or 
is read from the $SSL_CERT_DIR environment variable. "openssl version -d" will 
tell you the directory.
