[gnutls-devel] GnuTLS | GnuTLS does not handle long lists in signature_algorithms correctly (#555)

gnutls will not process more than 64 (GNUTLS_MAX_ALGORITHM_NUM) supported algorithms, because it doesn't support more than that number. By sending this supported number over and over you make it go over the limit, and thus the error. As the supported algorithms are less than this limit, the error is artificial and cannot happen in practice, except for a buggy client which sends repeatedly the same value. As such, I'm inclined to close that issue.
