Well a security bug has come up requiring a stable version of packages that 
are currently masked. I don't envisage mass breakage thanks to those of you 
who have previously tested the  gnutls 1.4.1 versions.

I would however appreciate a little more testing before it is marked stable.

To participate please:
1. add
~net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4
~dev-libs/libtasn1-0.3.5
to /etc/portage/package.unmask and /etc/portage/package.keywords files.

2. emerge -1 ~net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4

3. run revdep-rebuild

4. and report bugs on bugs.gentoo.org making them block bug 147682

I much appreciate your assistance in this manner.
