While we're waiting for the Tcl/Tk rebuild, with gcc-4.5 out, I can
start resyncing the distro with Ports' overrides.
ca-certificates contains the Certificate Authority root certificates
needed for verifying SSL certificates. It is needed for updating curl
and GNOME; wget can can also use it via the ca-certificate option.

ca-certificates is already included in all major distros.
