2010/11/17 Justin Clift <jclift(a)redhat.com>:
Also added an additional menu placement for the windows page, in
order to attract further potential testers.

Don't blame GnuTLS here. As stated on IRC my initial assumption was
wrong. The problem is probably not in GnuTLS, as gnutls-cli works
fine. The problem is in the way libcurl and GnuTLS interact. Therefore
libvirt's GnuTLS usage is not affected, only libcurl's.
I know how to fix it, but I don't understand in detail yet why it works.
