[Help-gnutls] CRLs and gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl_file

Does the function

gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl_file

do any sort of checking whatsoever on the CRL file?  The documentation 
implies that the CRL should be verified beforehand, but I'm not sure
what this means.  I know for sure that it does not check dates; does it 
check the CRL's signature against the loaded root CA cert?

If not, does the API provide a way to extract the loaded CRL from the 
credentials structure and do the checking?  Or is a separate deal?

Regards,
Rich
