Great, I'd rather wait until we have more critical things to fix before
doing another 2.4.x release.

Alas, yes.  We don't know how to handle an abstract crypto-layer without
bundling it with GnuTLS.

Possibly we could create another project which is the crypto provider
for all gnutls projects, and gnutls and opencdk could both use them
separately.  But it is a lot of work.
