+	  <p>The X.509 GeneralName type is a generic type for representing
+	    different types of names. One of those name types is known as
+	    EDIPartyName. OpenSSL provides a function GENERAL_NAME_cmp which
+	    compares different instances of a GENERAL_NAME to see if they
+	    are equal or not. This function behaves incorrectly when both
