Before anyone is going to revert this I'd like to add that it seems to fix a
bug with Custom Root CA for me.

Up to now whenever I have a box with an additional Private Root CA in
/usr/local/share/certs/ and run "certctl rehash" some tools like fetch
work properly up to the point when ca_root_nss is installed.

Removing ca_root_nss also made it work properly:
pkg remove -f ca_root_nss

After the change to ca_root_nss system tools like fetch work fine now
even when ca_root_nss is installed. Did not have any time yet to fully
understand why it behaves like that.
