Feel free to ask here.  GnuPG has a complete CMS/X.509 (aka S/MIME)
implementation.

By default GPGSM consults a CRL - in theory this is all you need.  The
little remaining problem is that PKIX (the public key infrastructure
used with S/MIME) does not work at all at a global level - or well, it
is not as secure as Verislime, Diginotar, and others try to tell you.
