That's really a bit misleading - the ca.pem is installed as part of the 
standard installation and editing ca.pem isn't usually necessary.

Not really, unless you're using your own CA.  All the standard ones are 
in there already.  If your're running your own CA just replace it with 
the CA certificate file (no need to keep the others).

If you're using selfsign certificates you don't need to change it either 
(it should exist, but it's not used in that case).

The genkey program will compile under Unix and that'll make a working 
selfsign certificate for simple uses.
