bug#30252: 24.5; Rudel cannot join infinote over starttls

[Teppo <teppo@www.tm.iki.fi>]

I attempted to join an Infinote server using Rudel plugin. Emacs
attempts to connect and hangs.

According to strace, Emacs does
"execve("/usr/bin/gnutls-cli", ["/usr/bin/gnutls-cli", "--starttls",
"--kx", "ANON_DH", "--port", "6523", "my-server-name.invalid"], [/* 41
vars */] <unfinish

The parameter --kx is not recognized by the gnutls-cli. This is
probably the root cause for things going wrong.

Both Emacs and gnutls-cli were installed though the package manager of
Debian 9. Rudel was installed using the package-install command of Emacs.


Did not crash, but became unresponsive until externally killed.
