gnutls 2.12.4

[Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos]

Hello,
 I've just released gnutls 2.12.4.

What's New
==========
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_get_issuer() to
compensate for the deprecated gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas().

** libgnutls: Limited allowed wildcards to
gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname() to prevent denial of service attacks.
Reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.

** guile: Fix tests to match the `exit' behavior introduced in Guile
2.0.1. This fix makes tests behave correctly wrt. to the Guile bug fix
at
<http://git.sv.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git/commit/?id=e309f3bf9ee910c4772353ca3ff95f6f4ef466b5>.

** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_certificate_get_issuer: ADDED
