SSL_load_client_CA_file() reads certificates from B<file> and returns
SSL_load_client_CA_file() reads certificates from I<file> and returns
a STACK_OF(X509_NAME) with the subject names found.
SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack() reads certificates from I<file>,
and adds their subject name to the already existing I<stack>.
SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() reads certificates from every
file in the directory I<dir>, and adds their subject name to the
already existing I<stack>.

SSL_load_client_CA_file() reads a file of PEM formatted certificates and
