Incompatibilities:

* build: You can no longer specify the location of GNUTLS using
  ``configure --with-gnutls=DIR''.

Fixed crashes:

  tab.  (Also fixed in ELinks 0.11.6.GIT.)

Build system:

* Debian build bug 526349: Include asciidoc.py from AsciiDoc 7.1.2,
  to remove all dependencies on the installed version.

* build enhancement: Recognize ``configure --without-tre''.

Everything else:

* Debian bug 528661: If using GNUTLS 2.1.7 or later, disable various
  TLS extensions (including CERT and SERVERNAME) to help handshaking
  with the SSLv3-only bugzilla.novell.com.

  previous tab.  (ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that had this
  bug.)
