Please review this 20+ year old bug (!), which marks the non-serializable fields of Certificate and CertPath with the transient modifier. These classes use an alternate serialization mechanism by overriding the writeReplace method. However, the fields of each class were never marked as transient and as a result were incorrectly documented in the Serialized Form section of the javadoc.
