CA certs aren't part of OpenJDK sources. 
See http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/build/raw-file/tip/README-builds.html#cacerts
for details, in particular:

"The source contain a cacerts file without CA root certificates. Formal JDK builders 
will need to secure permission from each public CA and include the certificates into 
their own custom cacerts file."

cheers,
