So which is it? If conflicting roots break things, then the problem
*is* insoluble.
Remember that RFC2826 only discusses the issue of conflicting roots - there's
no technical reason not to hand-wave and aggregate all identical roots

got all the identical roots to *be* identical, even if it was 5 kegs of
