Summary:                    use of mod_gnutls creates maximum POST limit in
Firefox
Description: 
Note:  This is using version 0.5.4 of mod_gnutls, but there wasn't a choice
for that in the Product Version list.

I've come across a problem with mod_gnutls and Firefox that's rather
difficult to explain.  After switching to mod_gnutls (from openssl), I
found that I could no longer edit any of "long" posts on my Drupal site. 
When clicking the submit button, firefox would try to send the POST about
6 times, then give up and return a completely blank page.

Only edits over https were affected; edits over http worked fine.  Other
browsers (Konqueror and Opera) also worked fine.  It took a while to
troubleshoot, but I was able to narrow it down to a combination of
mod_gnutls and Firefox.

This issue caused too many problems on my site, so I had to switch back to
mod_ssl.  As a result, the test page I posted will no longer show the
problem (this issue doesn't exist with mod_ssl).

I'm going to have to stick with mod_ssl until this problem is resolved, as
I need to be able to POST data to my website.  If I can do anything to help
troubleshoot this, feel free to ask; I'm very interested in this project,
and I've left my mod_gnutls configuration commented out in the hope that I
can switch over to it again some day.
