    POLICY FORMAT

    The policy section consists of a set of variables corresponding to
    certificate DN fields. If the value is "match" then the field value
    must match the same field in the CA certificate. If the value is
    "supplied" then it must be present. If the value is "optional" then
    it may be present. Any fields not mentioned in the policy section
    are silently deleted, unless the -preserveDN option is set but this
    can be regarded more of a quirk than intended behaviour.
