Is it true that without %SERVER_PRECEDENCE (and in earlier versions),
the GNUTLS client only looks at its own cipher list, and does not
restrict itself to the intersection of its own suites and that provided
by the server?

We're seeing interop issues with a TLSv1.2 server which advertises are
fairly restricted list of cipher suites.
