Serf reports a generic failure on some certificate errors, where neon
reports an authority untrusted.

Subversion only allows saving certificates as accepted for explicit errors
like out of date or authority untrusted.

When the certificate processing in the serf library is fixed Subversion will
automatically work as expected.
