Hello,

I was trying to open an audio stream over https using VLC (1.1.3), which 
bundles 
gnutls.

The CA chain verification is fine. Then we get:

gnutls error: Certificate does not match "foo.bar.example.com"

Indeed, the common name of the server certificate is "*.example.com", which 
does 
not match our hostname because of the dot in foo.bar (I don't know if this 
behaviour is specified by the protocols implemented by gnutls, or if it's up to 
the implementation).

Is there a way to convince gnutls to trust the certificate even if it does not 
match the hostname ?
