Lynx-SSL from the infoagents locker gives the following error message
when one attempts to visit a site with an expired server certificate:
We had some minor errors errors in verifying this certificate. Proceed? (y/n)
This seems suboptimal as an error message. (It's a good sight better
than what Netscape does, though...namely Bus Error. Ah, I do so love
untested code.)
