Details

There seem's to be an off-by-one in the "x days before next update" function. I imported a CRL that has next update field:

Next Update: Sep  6 21:03:09 2011 GMT

Now I enable auto-update and specify "Update 1 day(s) before Next Update date". I'd expect this to update at Sep  5 21:03:09 2011 GMT, but it does not, it updates at Sep  6. I deleted the CRL, reimported and set auto-update to "Update 5 day(s) before Next Update date". As expected, it does NOT update at Sep  1 but at Sep  2 it does.

Tested with Fx 8.0a2 on Windows.

Is this intended behavior or a bug?
