Thinking about this a little more, I guess the remaining concern is about people on Windows compiling their own psql from source, using an OpenSSL build that has a meaningful OPENSSLDIR baked in. I guess that might suggest we should make the "org.openssl.winstore:" code path something users can opt out of (or even, for maximum backwards-compatibility, opt in to) at compile-time. My preference would be for "org.openssl.winstore:" to be the compile-time default, though, because the option is called sslrootcert=system and it’s documented as using “the system’s trusted CA roots” (not sslrootcert=openssldir or documented as using OpenSSL’s default CA roots).
