I always wondered how this behavior was supposed to work. For gnutls an error is returned if the request is ignored. I think the use cases of these packets for renegotiation should be clearly defined (i.e. why send this packets and what should be expected from peer). I don't know how easy it is to implement the semantics precisely, but so far I didn't see any compelling reason to do so. regards, Nikos
