The certificate for the currently used CA is not shipped within Fedora 
browsers, too. Otherwise I probably would not have noticed the certificate of 
Koji. Thererfore using cacert would be no regression this way.

Btw. is it really needed that the client and server certificates are signed by 
the same CA?
The apache docu only mentions in for SSLCACertificateFile only client 
authentication:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcacertificatefile
