     SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() sets/replaces the certificate
     verification storage of ccccttttxxxx to/with ssssttttoooorrrreeee. If another
     X509_STORE object is currently set in ccccttttxxxx, it will be
     X509_STORE_free()ed.

     SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() returns a pointer to the current
     certificate verification storage.

     In order to verify the certificates presented by the peer,
     trusted CA certificates must be accessed. These CA
     certificates are made available via lookup methods, handled
     inside the X509_STORE. From the X509_STORE the
     X509_STORE_CTX used when verifying certificates is created.

     Typically the trusted certificate store is handled
     indirectly via using SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3).
     Using the SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() and
     SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() functions it is possible to
     manipulate the X509_STORE object beyond the
     SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) call.

     Currently no detailed documentation on how to use the
     X509_STORE object is available. Not all members of the
     X509_STORE are used when the verification takes place. So
     will e.g. the verify_callback() be overridden with the
     verify_callback() set via the SSL_CTX_set_verify(3) family
     of functions.  This document must therefore be updated when
     documentation about the X509_STORE object and its handling
     becomes available.

     SSL_CTX_set_cert_store() does not return diagnostic output.

     SSL_CTX_get_cert_store() returns the current setting.
