On second thoughts:

• how about a warning message (logged to “your recent statusline messages”)
  if validation support is off? I'll produce a diff.
• the check is bogus

- X509_verify_cert_error_string(X509_STORE_CTX_get_error(X509_STORE_CTX *0))
fails.
+ X509_verify_cert_error_string(X509_STORE_CTX_get_error(NULL))
succeeds.
