+X509_set_notBefore() and X509_set_notAfter() set the B<notBefore>
+and B<notAfter> fields of B<x> to B<tm>. Ownership of the passed
+parameter B<tm> is not transferred by these functions so it must
+be freed up after the call.

Is it worth adding [at this point in the release cycle] X509_set1_not{Before,After}() aliases to make it easier to deprecate the *_set_* forms in the future?
