Summary: Curl doesn't recognize certificates in PEM format in keychai

Initial Comment:
I've had the problem that I've got a ssl root certificate we used to sign our servers certificates in the keychain but since it was in the wrong format (DER) curl didn't recognize it.

Converting it to PEM and reimporting it in the keychain fixed it.

I would have really liked it if either the error message had pointed me in this direction earlier or curl would have just used that certificates, since openssl can happily eat both formats.

Message:
here's some output from curl that tripped me up initially:

% curl -I https://some.serv.ver -v
* About to connect() to some.serv.ver port 443 (#0)
* Trying some.ip... connected
* Connected to some.ser.ver (some.ip) port 443 (#0)
* SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client hello (1):

* SSLv3, TLS handshake, CERT (11):

* SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details:
error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify
failed
* Closing connection #0
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK.
Details:
error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify
failed
More details here: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a "bundle"
 of Certificate Authority (CA) public keys (CA certs). If the default
 bundle file isn't adequate, you can specify an alternate file
 using the --cacert option.
If this HTTPS server uses a certificate signed by a CA represented in
 the bundle, the certificate verification probably failed due to a
 problem with the certificate (it might be expired, or the name might
 not match the domain name in the URL).
If you'd like to turn off curl's verification of the certificate, use
 the -k (or --insecure) option.
