Ok, after reading your explanation, I agree that asking OpenSSL doesn't
sound ideal.  I'm wondering if it would be better to configure the CA
path as an image-property.

I was originally going to suggest exactly that, but felt it was over kill for now.

It might be useful and I don't see any security problems it could cause. In fact for user images (I think that is what they are called, I mean those that aren't an OpenSolaris bootable image or Zone root) it would be useful to point elsewhere sometimes (like using /etc/openssl/ instead of somewhere inside the image).
