Comment (by igel):

 Hey,
 my Pidgin is indeed compiled with GnuTLS support, and it's the OpenSSL
 certificates that are stored in /etc/ssl/certs, the GnuTLS certs are in
 /usr/share/ca-certificates. However, GnuTLS also knows the StartCom
 certificate:

 {{{
 /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/StartCom_Certification_Authority.crt
 }}}


 A quick test with GnuTLS looks okayish (no idea how to properly test
 that):

 {{{
 $ gnutls-cli --starttls register.jabber.org
 Resolving 'register.jabber.org'...
 Connecting to '208.68.163.219:443'...

 - Simple Client Mode:
 }}}

 NSS should work, since firefox works. Also, my curl (which works) is built
 with NSS. My Pidgin appears to be built with GnuTLS, but there is a plugin
 called "pidgin-encryption" which is built with NSS. Versions are
 - pidgin-encryption-3.1
 - NSS-3.11
 - GnuTLS-2.12.20
