Hi Max,
Did you consider using a CertPathBuilder instead? This should
essentially do the same thing (find a matching trust anchor, and build a
validated path).

This fix searches for a trust anchor in the cert chain, if truncate at the position if one is found. If the first certificate is already a trust anchor, we don't do validation at all.
