+    These errors are caused by the implementation of the pthread_cancel()
+    mechanism in NPTL, which uses the C++ exception mechanism without providing
+    any means to distinguish the cancel exception to regular C++ exception
+    handlers. It is possible that they might also occur when a CA client
