[gnutls-help] Detect whether certificate is self-signed

What is the best way with libgnutls do see whether a certificate is
self-signed? I'm guessing you have to compare issuer with subject, but
is there a preferred way to do that? From RFC5280 it seems to me that
this comparison is not trivial to do, but maybe for self-signed they
really always match byte for byte?
