I intend to introduce new functions without changing any of the others.
The following functions were added at 2013-04-08:

        gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2
        gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_mem2

Versions after 3.2 and 3.1.11 include them. Although it appears
straightforward to introduce them, my plan is to spend some time
acclimating myself with GnuTLS and the Emacs implementation to ensure
that I did it right, and then I'll submit a patch. Does it sound good?

Nikolaos Chatzikonstantinou
