The expired cert was in my initial email. This is a CA cert. If you go
to https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=svn.r-project.org
and wait for the analysis, and then expand the certification paths,
then you'll see three possible paths. (For most simulated clients.)
Two are trusted, one is not. The browsers can use a trusted one, e.g.
my Chrome uses the first, you can see this if you click on the lock
before the URL, and then on "Certificate". You'll see a chain of three
certs, just like on the ssllabs page.

Apparently, R / libcurl / openssl cannot use them, I am not entirely sure why.
