$PGDATA is /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main/ in Debian.

It is now working: I was naively thinking that root.crl should be feed
only with the certificate footprint (from root.srl, which is generated each
time I use the HOWTO client certificate generation script) but it was the
entire certificate that should be in (info grabbed on an ibm Pg paper but not
found into Pg's doc - I'm not very tough into openssl:(
