So they are showing up in the console but not certutil?  Any difference 
between
certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-hostname -L
and
certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv -L
?  That is, perhaps they were added to the admin server but not the 
directory server?

so if you link the library, and then do
certutil -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-hostname -L
you don't see any of those CA certs?

Try stopping the directory server before using certutil.

You should get a different error if there is a problem with the 
wildcard.  I think the problem is the certutil oddness.
