Subject: [PATCH] Explicitly track whether x509 creds have been set
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

If we want to use the system trust DB, we can't rely on cred_x509_cacert
field being non-NULL. We must explicitly record whether the client app
has set the x509 credentials. We allow cacert to be missing if we are
built against a new enough GNUTLS.
