This is caused, at least in part, by the recent change I've made to  
the X509Certificate class to use java.util.logging for debugging  
instead of System.err.println. It might be that a certificate is  
being loaded too early for there to be a stack trace?

Anyway, I don't think it is unreasonable to use loggers that early.  
Should loggers perhaps not depend on a full stack trace, if one isn't  
available?
