I got some interesting info from Kalle:
It looks like the license of GNUTLS 3.1.x may eventually be
changed from LGPLv3+ back to LGPLv2.1+. If that succeeds,
I believe it would solve the incompatibility with Pan.
http://lists.gnutls.org/pipermail/gnutls-devel/2013-February/006086.html
Alternatively, the SSL support could be rewritten to use the NSS
library from Mozilla; that one remains GPLv2-compatible. I don't
know yet how different its API is.
Hope this helps
Dominique
