OpenSSL provides a method, SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_paths(), for loading a default certificate store, which is used by many distributions.

In openSUSE, the default store is not a bundle, but a directory-based store, which is not supported at all by the SSL module in Python 2.7. A bug related to this was assigned to me here:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=761501

I created patches for the Python 2.7.3 and 3.2.3 SSL modules that will load the distribution-specific store if ca_certs is omitted.
