I was playing around with built-in GnuTLS and the funtions
`open-gnutls-stream' and `gnutls-negotiate' to try to get
trustfiles to work on Windows. (GnuTLS doesn't support a "-CApath"
option where you can specify a directory where PEM files lives,
unfortunately, unlike OpenSSL).

I would create a GnuTLS process via:

(with-temp-buffer
(open-gnutls-stream "tls" "tls-buffer" "imap.aim.com" 993))

and

(gnutls-negotiate :process (open-network-stream "tls" "tls-buffer"
                     "imap.aim.com" 993)
                    :type 'gnutls-x509pki
                    :trustfiles trustfiles
                    :hostname host)


When I didn't see a successful verification message, i.e. warnings:

gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) certificate signer was not found: imap.aim.com

I would kill the "tls-buffer" (hence killing the GnuTLS process) and
the buffer would be killed and I would see the expected message:

gnutls.c: [2] (Emacs) Deallocating x509 credentials

I would then make modifications to the definition of `trustfiles' or
PEM files, etc. and try again.

I would do this iteration many times.

Eventually, I would get into a state where I couldn't do much, seeing
messages like:

window-min-size-1: Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size

I then could only kill Emacs.
