Benjamin that looks accurate. I see the same thing as Terry (on Firefox 31) and the reason is: bugs.python.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: secerrorunknownissuer)

Aha, I see now -- the signing certificate is CAcert, which I've installed manually.
