[Bug 849831] [NEW] RSS feed blocktype cannot poll feeds served over untrusted SSL connections

 

Public bug reported:

If curl throws a certificate error while downloading an RSS feed in the
external feed blocktype, then the transfer does not proceed and the feed
is not usable.

We should make it possible for people to override this (but not enabled
by default) because sometimes there's nothing you can do about it.
