 ??? These certs are simply downloaded from
 https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html.

 > I see no evidence in the Portfile that the certificates are actually
 being added to any of the OS's certificate stores.

 If there’s a circumstance for which a port installs CAs in the System
 Keychain, I can’t imagine what that would be. This sounds like a Bad Idea.
 Users/Admins should manage their PKI.
