Unfortunately I noticed that some cts-based tests started
to fail and didn't have time to properly look into this yet.
I suspect it's related to a local OpenSSL update but that's
not yet confirmed.

I also would like the yet-to-be-drafted 4.2.0 announcement
to mention the financial problems the project is having and
announce additional donation options (as proposed on the
team-internal list). This will take a bit more time.

Delaying the release a couple of weeks should also
allow me to push MbedTLS 4.0 support.

I hope that's okay for everyone.

Fabian
