GnuTLS 2.5.7, third release candidate for 2.6.0

[Simon Josefsson]

The GnuTLS 2.5.x branch is NOT what you want for your stable system.  It
is intended for developers and experienced users.

The intention is to release a new stable branch on October 1th, unless
problems are reported.  Test this as if it were the new stable release!

Here are the compressed sources:

Here is the OpenPGP signature:

Improving GnuTLS is costly, but you can help!  We are looking for
organizations that find GnuTLS useful and wish to contribute back.  You
can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate money
or equipment.

Commercial support contracts for GnuTLS are available, and they help
finance continued maintenance.  Simon Josefsson Datakonsult, a Stockholm
based privately held company, is currently funding GnuTLS maintenance.
We are always looking for interesting development projects.  See
http://josefsson.org/ for more details.
