 I agree with  Sean McNamara  on this one.  Implementing a fix for this
other that the suggested Firefox equivalent would be a rash move that
would disable far to many valid services based on a hand crafted attack
that required considerable expertise and hardware.

Until a move is made to the SHA family of hashes by the  certifying
authorities there is no practical way to resolve this issue.
