They should still work but they are very hard to get right now that

IMO this approach tends to create more problems than it tries to resolve.
But if you strongly insists on using __attribute__((constructor)) to
initialize GnuTLS, what about defining gnutls_malloc etc. with
__attribute__((weak)) to allow users to replace them at link time?
