Hi Duncan, Thanks for the detailed email. First off, I can say that this should work. The broker and client library tests for SSL use a root->intermediate->server/client chain for signing. I suppose that's a good place to start - if you download the 1.2 tarball and run "make test" in the extracted directory, does it segfault? The test don't use mosquitto_pub/sub themselves so doesn't exactly match your case, but it's a good start.

I'll try and reproduce this myself on Fedora, but it might be a few days because I've got a work deadline on Monday and am working all hours. > Thoughts!?

Agreed, it should definitely work with chains. It definitely shouldn't segfault, either way!
