FYI, I finally figured it out myself.  Well, sort of.  I was having
trouble because the certificate sequence isn't a PKCS12 (no private key
;-) or a PKCS7, but a "Netscape Certificate Sequence".  Unfortunately,
OpenSSL's NSEQ tools are still primitive, and processing it with

./openssl nseq -in ~/deliver.exe

still generates an error. :-(  So I'm off to report a bug and perhaps
write a little tool of my own.  (I'd offer a fix, but I'm not that good
with C...)

Cheers,

Todd
