Regarding GnuTLS, I assume Pjotr is describing the failure of the "name-constraints" test [0]. Unfortunately, GnuTLS used a certificate in one of their tests without taking care to handle its expiration date, so now the certificate has expired. It looks like a mistake. Other test certificates in their test suite are guarded against this, and they have committed a fix. At least we have the substitute. I would be interested to see the Subversion test failure.
