That's not really possible, because the code that's doing certificate
validation works with an abstract certificate store API, and does not
know whether a particular certificate should or should not have been
listed a trust-anchor in some store.

All we know is that we've reached a self-signed certificate in the
chain (so no further issuers can be found) and it is not in any
of the trust stores, so verification fails.

Perhaps we could document the errors in a bit more depth, but I don't
think it is possible to tell you that your CApath was missing some
specific symlink.
