You're badly mistaken.  *ONLY* the first certificate in the file is verified.
When you put the leaf cert at the end, you're *ONLY* verifying the top-most
issuer CA certificate.

The correct way to verify a chain is to put the root CA in a CAfile,
intermediate CAs in an "untrusted" chain file, and the leaf cert all
by itself in a separate file.  As explained upstream.  If that's not
working, then perhaps your chain is actually incomplete or otherwise
does not satisfy all the requirements.
