I  have already tried with only C1 in root.crt but unfortunately it does not work. I get error message that cert is
invalid.It seems that chained CA's are not supported in a way we would like to have it done. I would prefer to have
numberof trusted certs in root.crt limited as much as possible, but as I said it does not work. 

About Java, I would need to analyze the libpq code and implement KeyManager in a similar way - this is surely possible
butnot necessarily preferred solution ;-)
