> This patch adds 3 module-level variables to the socket
module, which get exposed iff ssl is built in. These
variables (ssl_ca_file, ssl_ca_path, and ssl_verify_level)
provide programmer-level access to the certificate
authorities database and to control what level of
certificate verification is performed (by default, none, as
is the current behavior).

Are you sure it's a good idea to have this kind of 'global'
control over certification authorities?  Global
configurations are handy at first, but they come back and
bite us when we least expect it...
