[devpi-dev] devpi without SSL cert verification?

Hi there, I am in the situation where I have to install an egg-server on AIX box with various flaws - in particular the complete SSL cert verification for python.org and pypi.python.org is broken. There is nothing that can be done to fix the broken state of the box. Would it be possible to install devpi and disable all related SSL cert checks on global basis or do I have to walk through the complete devpi code or the underlaying module dealing with http/s?
