In the internet I found (but lost again) a discussion about the same 
certificate using a different program on a different operating system. There 
somebody stated that the certificate is in fact neither self-signed nor 
directly issued by a trusted cerfification authority but signed by google's 
intermediate certification authority, instead.
AFAIK this is generally counted as secure by software, though.
