You'll probably have to nail that down fairly explicitly, e.g., If the
signing certificate is not equal (byte for byte) to a trusted certificate,
then perform matching as follows...
Strictly speaking, I think a trust anchor will "validate" with depth 0
against the set of trust anchors and some code may not be able to tell the
difference easily.
