Ok, I've traced this further now. ELinks does:

gnutls_priority_set_direct(*state, "NORMAL:-CTYPE-OPENPGP", NULL)

which used to pass fine in 3.5. (aka use normal, but disable OPENPGP
certs), with with 3.6 this errors out, because OPENPGP certs are
disabled now by default.... but that matches the requested
expectations.

Imho, it would be nice if -CTYPE-OPENPGP was still valid in 3.6 and be a no-op.

Regards,

Dimitri.
