Package: firefox
Severity: normal

Enabling OCSP validation for certificates causes at least some HTTPS 
websites to fail to load, with Firefox popping up an alert box reporting 
an error like:

"Error establishing an encrypted connection to sdlc5a.sun.com. Error 
Code: -5990."

To reproduce:
In the Security tab on the "Advanced" preferences screen, click the 
"Verification" button, and select "Use OCSP to validate only 
certificates that specify an OCSP service URL".

Setting it for "Do not use..." makes the problem go away.
