[Pki-devel] Request for review: Bug 928680 - Minor additions to pkisilent (ECC)

Endi brought up an interesting question ..

In this code, you do a string comparison to find the CA cert.
 
+                if  (ca_certs[i].getSubjectDN().toString().equals(
+                    cert.getIssuerDN().toString())) {

Is a string comparison valid?  For example, if one uses c=US and the
other uses C=US, then the string comparison might fail.  Shouldn't some
DN comparison operation be done instead?
