Probably because packages like 'curl' are build with a static path to the ca-bundle.
For example ./configure for the package 'curl' has this option: --with-ca-bundle=/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt

For a temporary solution until all affected packages get updated you can create a symlink to the new 'ca-bundle.crt' file.

cd /etc/ssl/certs
ln -s ca-bundle.crt ca-certificates.crt

This got rushed, poorly, and the updates were removed. I'm very sorry.
Please downgrade again:

pacman -S core/ca-certificates{,-cacert,-utils} extra/{nss,ca-certificates-{mozilla,java},p11-kit}

And if you have multilib:

pacman -S multilib/lib32-p11-kit
