Does gnutls 2.10.3 break your libwebkit based browser?

gnutls 2.10.3 breaks libwebkit based browsers on my machine. The following error is typical with jumanji:

Problem occurred while loading the URL https://bbs.archlinux.org/

SSL handshake failed: A record packet with illegal version was received.

I tested with Midori and the same problem is there. I tested with Chromium and I saw it crash in ways that I've never seen before. I doubt that the problem is the same with Chromium, but I thought that it's worth the mention.

I decided to ask instead of filing a bug report because my gut instinct told me that it was something about my setup and not a bug in the package. Well, it turns out that it was the old version of libsoup that I was using.

--EDIT--

I thought that the problem went away, but I'm back to my libsoup problem:

*** GADS! ***

I guess I'm stuck with the older libsoup and gnutls. I wonder when the cycle is going to end?
