he said the cert is self-signed.  he would have to tell openssl that
this signature is trusted.

the reason for the "sudden" appearing of thes warnings might be the
better cert checking in recent openssl implementations.  from 0.9.7 on
they will even check revocation lists (CRLs) :)

maybe it's enough to fetch the servers certificate and put it into
local/ssl/certs?
