You're welcome Michael.

What are your thoughts on a BUNDLED_CERTS or similarly named option, which uses
the bundled certs when enabled (default), and ca_root_nss when disabled?

My thoughts on the considerations/tradeoff space:

1) I'm not particularly a fan of 'reversed' option semantics, which can be a
little confusing for users, but ...

2) The merit of having the default port/package build match upstream behaviour
would seem to be nice, leaving a choice for the user to change it if they would
like to, in place.

3) In this configuration, package users would  (only) get the default (bundled)
certs without customisation ability.
