That was the only functionality GnuTLS is used for. The change that
resulted in newer version requirement is matching the RSA private key by
its public key (instead if asking the user to specify an address +
port).

If needed I can try to create a compatibility file for older GnuTLS
versions that implements the needed functionality.
