[tor-commits] [tor/maint-0.4.0] NSS: disable TLS1.2 SHA-384 ciphersuites.

commit 5cb94cbf9d89804ea37a2f1e68d354a86edb223e

    NSS: disable TLS1.2 SHA-384 ciphersuites.
    
    In current NSS versions, these ciphersuites don't work with
    SSL_ExportKeyingMaterial(), which was causing relays to fail when
    they tried to negotiate the v3 link protocol authentication.
    
    Fixes bug 29241; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.

+  o Major bugfixes (NSS, relay):
+    - When running with NSS, disable TLS 1.2 ciphersuites that use SHA384
+      for their PRF. Due to an NSS bug, the TLS key exporters for these
+      ciphersuites don't work -- which caused relays to fail to handshake
+      with one another when these ciphersuites were enabled.
+      Fixes bug 29241; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
