As a rule of thumb, I would avoid diverging from upstream, especially
for touchy points like this one: it quickly gets problematic when a
same-named package behaves differently across distros.

In this case, because GnuTLS does not honor any environment variables,
applications/libraries linked against it have to provide their own
mechanism for users to specify the certificate search path.  Normally,
they already do that.

WDYT?
