As far as I know, CURL (app and library) is perfectly happy to use a text file comprised of concatenated PEM certificates.
I really wonder if there’s a real use case.

First, because OpenSSL doesn’t support it now, then CURL (what the original poster was talking about) can’t use it when using OpenSSL. Instead, as others have pointed out, they should use a text file that has a bunch of PEM blobs concatenated. Do we know any application that needs this?
