The problem report Bill had forwarded to me involved FIrefox 2.0.0.1
(on Mac OS), which is why I glossed over it originally. The reported
problem was that attempts to access a protected site failed when the
profile contained multiple (valid) certs. I did some quick tests with
1.5.0.9 (on Linux), using a profile with multiple valid certs, and a
profile with a valid cert and an expired cert, and things worked in
all cases. Also, it appears that the relevant source code did not
change between 1.5.0.8 and 1.5.0.9. (It did change between 2.0.0.0
and 2.0.0.1, though).
So, unless there is other information pointing at a problem in 1.5.0.9,
I plan to proceed with the integration work for the patch release.
