Indeed but I'm thinking that someone might do more than check a single
issuer. He might want to print the whole imported list. In that case
I'd use something like gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas() that will
return the whole list of issuers, and your check can be done at the
application level. Would something like this suit you?

Yes, that certainly sounds fine too.

I've done a commit at:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnutls.git;a=commitdiff;h=a259726327bf193e9c83f7473d517502ba8a879b

However these functions will restrict us on a rewrite of certificate_credentials... but it doesn't seem likely.

regards,
Nikos
