golang：HTTPS请求产生“ crypto / rsa：验证错误”

I'm having trouble accessing https urls with the net/http package.

Here's a working example of the error:

package main

import (
  "fmt"
  "net/http"
)

func main() {
  _, err := http.Get("https://api.bitfinex.com/v1/book/ltcbtc")
  if err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
}

This program yields the error,

Get https://api.bitfinex.com/v1/book/ltcbtc: crypto/rsa: verification error

The docs for net/http clearly state,

Get, Head, Post, and PostForm make HTTP (or HTTPS) requests

but I can't find any documentation on this error.

The source for crypto/rsa only has this to say about the error:

// ErrVerification represents a failure to verify a signature.
// It is deliberately vague to avoid adaptive attacks.
var ErrVerification = errors.New("crypto/rsa: verification error")

So I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm pretty sure it's not their fault because Chrome is happy with their https certificate.

I've also tried using a Client with a tls.Config that has InsecureSkipVerify set to true, but that didn't seem to shut this error up.

Go uses the system root SSL certificate under linux and windows.

Given that the test works fine on my ubuntu 12.04 box with go 1.2, either

1. You are using a very old version of go
2. Your system has out of date root certificates

If you want to update your root certificates, here is a hint for windows. Googling should find you more ideas for other OSes.
