Yes.

This indicate there was a problem when GnuTLS was installed -- it is
using the wrong libgnutls-extra library.  That has to be solved first.

Nope.  The server should send its OpenPGP server key instead of the
X.509 certificate, if you are using a correctly installed recent
GnuTLS version.

Can you reproduce this with a clean build of GnuTLS 1.7.6?  It seems
for some reason, your different GnuTLS installations seems to confuse
each other.
