That is ancient and unsupported.

Upgrade to at least 6.3.26,
and since you know how to compile, clone the gitlab repo
and select the legacy_64 branch which is the default,
and helps move fetchmail forward to master 7.x.

Read the man page.
sslcertpath must be a dir of openssl hashed certs,
 your dir is not.
sslcertfile if you want a combined pem bundle.
