With the openssl command line utility you get:

Error Loading extension section v3_ca
21647:error:0D06407A:asn1 encoding routines:a2d_ASN1_OBJECT:first num too
large:a_object.c:108:
21647:error:2208B077:X509 V3 routines:V2I_AUTHORITY_INFO_ACCESS:bad
object:v3_info.c:172:value=caRepository
21647:error:22098080:X509 V3 routines:X509V3_EXT_nconf:error in
extension:v3_conf.c:93:name=subjectInfoAccess,
value=caRepository;URI:http://www.foo.com/

Now admittedly the "first number too large" is a bit misleading but the second
error indicates a bad OID and that it doesn't like "caRepository".

Perhaps whatever you are using isn't printing out the full error message?
