Comment (by cypherpunks3):

 GnuTLS might be helpful for anti-censorship use, despite their
 incompatible licenses.

 I live in China and patched my own Tor with GnuTLS (using their
 `gnutls_record_send_range` to do extra padding), which works smoothly with
 vanilla bridges. Never seen GFW active probing on my bridge.
