Just did a clone and the new lib/x509/verify-high2.c is *wildly*
different
from the source file in the release tarball to the extent that the
function
load_dir_certs() is gone entirely.

Let me check here :

node000$ /usr/local/bin/git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gnutls.git

./gnutls/lib/x509/verify-high2.c
node000$

node000$ grep "load_dir_certs" gnutls/lib/x509/verify-high2.c

Nothing found.  I did a search around and see if it was moved
elsewhere and it seems to be gone and no reference to it exists.

Not sure what this means but I should I wait for a new release tarball
before trying anything?
