-Adding GnuTLS support to PostgreSQL would require solving several

I'm curious about this, but I don't know that I've got time to dive into
it and solve it. :/

Note that the past discussion was on the difficulty of matching the existing OpenSSL API using GnuTLS, which is apparently difficult to do. I wasn't trying to suggest there were issues specificially with GnuTLS's code quality. It's more that the APIs are just different enough that it's not trivial to do a swap--which is surprising given how many people have seemingly needed to do exactly this conversion. You'd think there'd be a simple "OpenSSL-like" interface available for GnuTLS by now or something.
