Below is a patch (against HEAD) that allows the import of ASCII-armored
OpenPGP private keys.

Thanks,
Ludovic.


ChangeLog entry:

	* lib/gnutls_cert.c (_gnutls_raw_privkey_to_gkey): Pass KEY_ENC to
	`_E_gnutls_openpgp_raw_privkey_to_gkey ()'.

	* libextra/gnutls_extra.h (OPENPGP_RAW_PRIVKEY_TO_GKEY): Added a
	`gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t' argument.

	* libextra/gnutls_openpgp.c
	(_gnutls_openpgp_raw_privkey_to_gkey): Take a new FORMAT
	argument.  When FORMAT is `BASE64', set the armor flag on OUT.
	(gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem): Pass
	`GNUTLS_OPENPGP_FMT_RAW' as the last argument to
	`_gnutls_openpgp_raw_privkey_to_gkey ()'.

	* libextra/openpgp/gnutls_openpgp.h
	(_gnutls_openpgp_raw_privkey_to_gkey): Updated accordingly.

	* libextra/openpgp/privkey.c (gnutls_openpgp_privkey_import):
	Pass FORMAT to `_gnutls_openpgp_raw_privkey_to_gkey ()'.
