The server software and the TLS library would be nice. My own server,
<gemini://gemini.conman.org/> is running GLV-1.12556, written in Lua, and
using LibreSSL (specifically because it comes with libtls, a sane TLS
wrapper around the rest of LibreSSL). It could very well be a limitation of
the TLS library itself.
