For the record, Entrust understands what our concern is and has been 
cooperative in trying to come up with a way to address it. However the 
problem is that even if Entrust were to revoke DigiNotar's intermediate 
CA certificate that would not help resolve the problem, for the reason I 
mentioned earlier (Firefox/Thunderbird et.al. don't do revocation checks 
for CA certs).
