Hi Julien,

Currently there is no way to override that behavior. We're working on
improving the situation in bug 1009161.
See also bug 1054368 regarding a way to view the certificate for
non-overridable errors.
If you can get in touch with whoever administers the internal
certificates, I would encourage them to take a look at
https://wiki.mozilla.org/SecurityEngineering/x509Certs for information
on how to create a certificate hierarchy that is compatible with RFC 5280.
