 Given this, I think gnutls has done what it can about this bug, and it
 might be appropriate to even close it, rather than leaving it in
 wontfix.
 
 Is there anything more we can do about this bug?  Suggestions are most
 welcome.

 I'd love to have some permanent reference that can be found by Symbian
 device owners and referenced in response to new bug reports.

 Good idea.  I'm trying to find a good place in the manual to discuss
 'MAC padding' and its interop problems.

 Greetings
 Marc

Here's a E60 and N95 owner (and a [currently] broken E61 too) glad to
tests things ;)

The easiest to play with is the N95 as it's my phone but can try stuff
in the E60 also without problem.

So just ask for anything you want me to try ;)

Cheers,
Marc

 I recommend that applications offer a way to set the GnuTLS priority
 string in a configuration file, and to default it to 'NORMAL'.  It is
 extra good if the application allows users to set the GnuTLS priority on
 a per-IP basis, so that administrators doesn't have to decrease security
 to cater for a few broken devices.

 Since mobile phones usually connect with a dynamic IP address, this
 will most probably end up with a 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 netmask though.

True..  however some may know which IP addresses are affected, so making
this possible would be useful.  At least I could list the networks of my
3G provider.

 Given this, I think gnutls has done what it can about this bug, and it
 might be appropriate to even close it, rather than leaving it in
 wontfix.
