* Version 1.2.9
- Documentation was updated and improved.
- RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
- Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
  certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
  GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output.  For
  applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
  GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
  flags when verifying certificates.  Naturally, this is not
  recommended default behaviour for applications.  To enable the
  broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
  proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
  gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
- Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
  to align with the send(2) API.
- Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
  some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
- Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
  tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
- The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
  earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
  This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
  leading to more review and simpler maintenance.  The new configure
  parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
  must be used if you wish to enable this functionality.  See README
  under "Experimental" for more information.  Internally, GnuTLS has
  been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h.  The
  API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
  based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
- Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
- API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
                             This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
                             so we don't break backwards compatibility.
GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
                                  Use when calling
                                  gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
                                  gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
                                  gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
                                used when broken signature algorithms
                                is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
			  version number, can be used for feature existence
			  tests.

- Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
- Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
  examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
  from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
- If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
  tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
  validation fails.  Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
  after certificate validation failures.  Inspired from discussion
  with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.

  to make them more portable, patch from Martin Lambers
  <marlam@marlam.de>.
- Made the PKCS #12 API handle null passwords. Based on patch by
  Anton Altaparmakov <aia21@cam.ac.uk>.
- The GTK-DOC manual should build with current released tools.

  regenerate the (optional) parameters in a private key. It should

  No changes since last version.  At least not intentional, but due
  to the include header changes, there may be inadvertant changes,
  please let us know if you find any.

- Added the option --get-dh-params to certtool, in order to get the
  parameters included in the library primes and generators.

  incremented by 1 to account for the terminating zero. Reported by
  Martin Lambers <marlam@web.de>.
- Debug output shouldn't crash on platforms that doesn't handle NULL
  printf %s values.  Reported by Michael.Ringe@aachen.utimaco.de.
- Sync included copy of libtasn1 with version 0.2.13.

  ability to import and export from and to PKCS3 structures. This 
  was needed to read parameters generated using the openssl dhparam tool.

  parameters are now included in the library. Also the credentials structure 
  can now hold only one temporary parameter of a kind.

  will not be used, and libgnutls-extra will depend on liblzo.
- GNUTLS_E_PARSING_ERROR error code was replaced by GNUTLS_E_BASE64_DECODING_ERROR, 
  and GNUTLS_E_SRP_PWD_PARSING_ERROR. GNUTLS_E_ASCII_ARMOR_ERROR was also 
  replaced by GNUTLS_E_BASE64_DECODING_ERROR.

  which should be used by callback functions.
- Changed the semantics of gnutls_pem_base64_encode_alloc()
