Is this what you are talking about???
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=37620
and if so, explain how that affects PKI authorization and I will be glad
to file a bug and make lots of community noise ...
Or if you would, file a bug on bugs.centos.org that explains exactly how
pki cna not be used with php and I will file an upstream bug to see if
they will fix it.
Now, they will not fix every bug, but non-functional PKI is one I think
that they will address.
Thanks,
