This doesn't entirely make any sense to me. GNUTLS also uses GNULIB,
including all its socket wrappers for send/recv. If the push/pull
function is NULL, gnulib does this
if (session->internals._gnutls_push_func == NULL)
{
i = send (GNUTLS_POINTER_TO_INT (fd), &ptr[n - left], left, 0);
And this 'send' impl maps to GNULIBs replacement in GNUTLS tree, which
is identical to libvirt's 'send' impl
So AFAICT, the syscall behaviour will be identical both with & without
your proposed patch.
The only potential difference I can see is that when push/pull are
NULL, GNUTLS calls into WSAGetLastError (); to set the errno
which is somewhat redundant as GNULIB has already called that and
used it to set errno.
