[issue20916] ssl.enum_certificates() will not return all certificates trusted by Windows

[Adam Goodman]

Adam Goodman added the comment:

I just tried installing the root certificate update from KB931125 on a clean VM. Now I have 369 trusted root CAs, according to certmgr.msc. (I imagine it would be unreasonable to expect all windows python users to do this, though...)

The https request to python.org does succeed - but the code I'd thrown together to print out the SSLContext state breaks somehow:

> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "C:/Users/IEUser/Desktop/win_ssl_test.py", line 8, in <module>
>     ca_certs = context.get_ca_certs()
> ssl.SSLError: unknown error (_ssl.c:636)

Peeking at _ssl.c, it seems like it might be failing to decode some attributes on one (or more) of the certs...?
