+- May need to check AKID in crypto/x509/x509_vfy.c:get_crl().

+- Bug in policy checking code (may not matter): if one attempts to
+ check policy on a trust anchor, crypto/x509v3/pcy_tree:tree_init()
+ returns success ("Can't do anythign with just a trust anchor") which
+ X509_policy_check() line 634 interprets as a malloc failure because
+ there's no policy tree data structure. Presumably we should just
+ return success here instead?
