This patch breaks existing OpenSSL installations without valid reason,  
so I don't think this is a good idea.

It would be better to use CERTFILE if OpenSSL is used and CERTPATH  
(and friends) if NSS is used. By doing so, it would be immediately  
clear if a user is using OpenSSL or NSS. This would probably be  
beneficial in case people ask how to set this up.

In order for this to work, we should generate different  
'upsd.conf.sample' files depending on the SSL library used. This would  
be worthwhile anyway, for versions compiled with OpenSSL and where  
some of these keywords are not used at all (and would only confuse  
people setting this up).

Best regards, Arjen
