Hello everyone,

I have just uploaded the source archive for mod_gnutls 0.7.3. This is a
bugfix & maintenance release.

Changelog since mod_gnutls 0.7.2:

* Update test suite for compatibility with GnuTLS 3.4, which has
  stricter key usage checks and priorities than 3.3.

* Write non-HTML output to mod_status reports if AP_STATUS_SHORT is
  set (mod_status sets it for requests with the "auto" parameter, e.g.
  https://localhost/server-status?auto).

* Register "ssl_is_https" function so the special mod_rewrite variable
  %{HTTPS} works correctly with mod_gnutls. The new test case for this
  requires Wget or curl. Fixes Debian bug #514005.

* Test suite servers listen on IPv4 *and* IPv6 loopback addresses by
  default (other addresses configurable), which should fix failures
  due to localhost randomly resolving to either on some distributions.

* Isolate tests using network namespaces, if possible. This avoids
  port conflicts with other test cases (so they can run in parallel)
  and host services.

* Support for local Apache drop-in config files in the test suite
  (e.g. to load additional modules needed on Fedora).

* Try to use markdown to build HTML documentation if pandoc is not
  available.

* Disable use of flock if it is unavailable or does not support
  timeouts (the latter caused the build to fail on Debian Hurd).

* New test: Disable TLS 1.0 (regression test for Debian bug #754960).
