It doesn't look like openldap has any provision for "collecting" a
list of one-shot certificate authorities, so each subsequent
LDAPTrustedGlobalCert sets "the" certificate authority.

Openldap provides an option to pass the path to a directory full of
certificate authorities, but it doesn't look like apache has any way
to set that.

[PATCH] Fwd: [users@httpd] Apache httpd 2.2.8 not reading LDAPTrustedGlobalCert files

Posted by Eric Covener <co...@gmail.com>.
If I understand the versioning correctly, this additional cert-type
macro couldn't be added to 1.3.x after a 1.3.0 release. Would be nice
to have the glue in place so we can get HTTPD plugged into openldap
better.
