no. (and this is why i am puzzled)
it involves my own CA and one cert signed by this CA
and both of these certs are perfectly verifiable by openssl (as called 
from the command line)

(i even bothered to ensure trustworthiness of my CA with the system's 
openssl)

and i supply these certs to the erlang's ssl the following way:
{cacertfile, Dir ++ "ca.crt"},
{certfile, Dir ++ "server.crt"},
{keyfile, Dir ++ "server.key"}
% No other options

where: server.crt = concatenation of ca.crt my.crt
