That doesn't really mean "don't seem to work".  It could be some real
problem (assuming your gnutls DLL is the latest one).  This works for
everyone else, including in Gnus.

That's hardly a good solution, because you now use gnutls via its
external gnutls-cli program, which relies on signals for its
communications with Emacs.  This only works when your Emacs is a
Cygwin build, otherwise you might see Emacs hang in TLS connections.

Indeed, that's a good idea.
