Done.  I sent a bug report to bug-gnutls@gnu.org.

Yes, this replicates it on my setup:

$ gnutls-serv --http

$ emacs -Q

Eval:

(setq gnutls-log-level 5
      message-log-max t
      gnus-directory "~/.emacs.d/gnus/News/"
      gnus-startup-file "~/.emacs.d/gnus/.newsrc"
      gnus-secondary-select-methods
      (quote ((nnimap "localhost"
                      (nnimap-server-address "localhost")
                      (nnimap-server-port 5556)
                      (nnimap-user "fitzsim")))))

M-x gnus
