+The GnuTLS library is initialized on load; prior to 3.3.0 was initialized by calling @funcref{gnutls_global_init}@footnote{
+The original behavior of requiring explicit initialization can obtained by setting the
+GNUTLS_NO_EXPLICIT_INIT environment variable to 1, or by using the macro GNUTLS_SKIP_GLOBAL_INIT
+in a global section of your program.}. 
 The initialization typically enables CPU-specific acceleration, performs any required
 precalculations needed, opens any required system devices (e.g., /dev/urandom on Linux)
 and initializes subsystems that could be used later.
