As OpenVPN 2.6+ is doing some adoptions to the license text, all
prior contributors need to accept this new text.  Unfortunately, Mathieu
Giannecchini who implemented the --tls-export-cert feature did not
respond at all.  Without an explicit acceptance we need to remove this
feature to avoid potential legal complications.

If this is still a wanted feature, it will need to be re-implemented
from scratch.

Is this significantly different from the "master" patch that it needs
an extra 2.6 patch?

(So now I have 4 patches to deal with, not "1 that goes to master +
release/2.6"...)
The "second set" should just be offset changes between master and release/2.6. I did it that way so you wouldn't need to be worried about any merge conflicts. It is based on the latest heads of master and release/2.6.

If you want to just cherry-pick the master patches for 2.6, that's all fine by me. Also if you want to squash them into a single commit as well.

These patches are purely intended to ease the merging process, as in "no conflicts expected". And to indicate that this is both master + release/2.6 material.

The main reason I overlooked the x509_write_pem() function was that Adriaan de Jong refactored out that functionality from the main feature function into a dedicated function back in the days with the SSL/TLS refactoring to support PolarSSL.
