SSL validation failures

In a previous e-mail I announced client code for Dropbox.  The Dropbox
API requires HTTPS so I'm using the 7.7.1 security parcels in 7.8
"download edition" of VisualWorks at the moment.  The python SDK that I
translated the client from had the attached set of certs.  When I load
them with:

pem := 'trusted-certs.crt' asFilename.
bundle := CertificateFileReader new readFrom: pem readStream.
X509Registry trustedCertificates addAll: bundle.

and try to talk with the dropbox API endpoint, I get
Security.SSLWarning  Certificate Subject Failed Validation !.  I have
attached a sample walkback.  I was assuming (hoping) that including the
certs supplied by dropbox would make the SSL framework happy.  The
python SDK is happy with them.  I don't understand the SSL validation
process so any help would be appreciated...I hate just ignoring these
warnings (for now I'm just resume-ing the exception).
