The upstream fix for this problem is in:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnutls.git;a=commitdiff;h=46958a67b93bbb739bbc9a74ccb7e4dbd380ad76

An alternative fix that doesn't require modifications to gnutls is to
have exim and any other application set value themselves:

  gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length (session, 64*1024);

FYI, the total packet size to do a TLS handshake with your server is
25kb, which is the largest I've seen so far.

I'll backport the change from 16kb to 48kb to the v2.2 branch.  We will
do a new stable release soon.
