Ouch, that's really bad.  We'll probably have to roll a 0.3.4 to fix
that.  I guess that it should only be used if 'gcc --help --verbose'
contain "-Wpointer-sign".

I'll release gnutls 1.2.11 shortly that should work fine with the
recent libtasn1 versions.  You must disable the X.509 XML stuff in
gnutls 1.2 to be able to link to libtasn1 cleanly.
