Steve is saying that he would like to get a fixed GnuTLS package into
Debian as soon as possible so that we can upload an OpenLDAP package
without the workaround and get through the transition before the mismatch
causes any more problems, I think.

No one is saying that the patch is wrong.  Just having it committed
upstream doesn't get it into Debian, though, and we're not the GnuTLS
packagers.  :)  Steve already filed a bug against the Debian GnuTLS
package.
