It does support my point that if we do it for GnuTLS, we should do it
for other libraries. Of course, I believe we shouldn't.

It could still check and write a log entry for the administrator. Or
it could have a module, accessible only to some authenticated user,
that listed recommended upgrades. It doesn't.
And it's not necessarily a daemon. You can start it in batch mode to
check things. It could have an option to check upgrades in that case.
It doesn't, either.

And, as soon as they have upgraded, the users feel secure again.
Particularly on Windows, where most people is not very
security-conscious.
Anyway, I think the dead equine has been beaten to a pulp and turned
into fertilizer. We don't really advance anything rehashing the same
arguments again and again, IMHO. YMMV.
