* SECURITY UPDATE: fix improper handling of '\0' in Common Name (CN) and
  Subject Alternative Name (SAN) in X.509 certificates (LP: #413136)
  - debian/patches/91_CVE-2009-2730.diff: verify length of CN and SAN
    are what we expect and error out if either contains an embedded \0.
    This fixed required updating _gnutls_hostname_compare() in
    lib/x509/rfc2818_hostname.c to support wide wildcard hostname matching.
    This is a backward compatible change and which only adds additional
    matching of hostnames.
  - CVE-2009-2730
