+ If a certificate doesn't contain a CRL Distribution

+ Verify certificate signature against original certificate
+ binary.</p>
+ <p>
+ This avoids bugs due to encoding errors when re-encoding
+ a decode certificate. As there exists several decode step
+ and using of different ASN.1 specification this is a risk
+ worth avoiding.</p>

+ Add upper limit for session cache, configurable on ssl
+ application level.</p>
+ <p>
+ If upper limit is reached, invalidate the current cache
+ entries, e.i the session lifetime is the max time a
+ session will be keept, but it may be invalidated earlier
+ if the max limit for the table is reached. This will keep
+ the ssl manager process well behaved, not exhusting
+ memeory. Invalidating the entries will incrementally
+ empty the cache to make room for fresh sessions entries.</p>
