** libgnutls: enabled TCP Fast open for MacOSX. Patch by Tim Ruehsen.
+** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname2() no longer matches IP addresses
+ against DNS fields of certificate (CN or DNSname). The previous behavior
+ was to tolerate some misconfigured servers, but that was non-standard
+ and skipped any IP constraints present in higher level certificates.
+
+** libgnutls: when converting to IDNA2008, fallback to IDNA2003 (i.e., transitional
+ encoding) if the domain cannot be converted. That provides maximum compatibility
+ with browsers like firefox that perform the same conversion.
+
** certtool: made printing of key ID and key PIN consistent between certificates,
public keys, and private keys. That is the private key printing now uses the
same format as the rest.
