I've update gpg4win accordingly.

I've taken the patch from the ubuntu gnutls package for GNUTLS-SA-2014-3 
(CVE-2014-3466)
http://git.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=gpg4win.git;a=blob;f=patches/gnutls-2.12.23/05-cve-2014-3466.patch;h=58af165b2400c0d335777c78dd6e517455894e8e;hb=b45aa3eaa3fa433bc3368ea2ebdf26cff4d19a92

We are still making some new releases / ironing out some problems but you can 
expect a binary release (at least a beta) soon.

Please let me know if I've missed a patch / vulnerability.

Best regards,
Andre
