THE SECOND SANYOJANA

vicikiccha: "uncertainty", the second fetter.

This is always translated as "doubt in the Buddha's Teachings".  It certainly includes this.  But it refers to any doubts.  Think about it: The FETTERS are almost as old as the sangsara and men have been breaking them and becoming enlightened since before the Buddha and his teaching appeared.
