The problem is not with the minimum required version, because we have
additional version-dependent cpp conditions in gnutls.c.  The problem
is that we assumed these functions were available since GnuTLS 3.0.0,
which is false.

Ted, what would you propose to do with this issue?  Disable the
relevant functionality for versions of GnuTLS that don't have these
APIs?

Thanks.
