After testing some more, I've come to the following conclusions:

* Putting key and certificate in one file is fine.

* A key length of 4096 bit is fine.

* A certificate hash with SHA-512 is not fine. I need to use SHA-256
instead.

Both Thunderbird and 'openssl s_client' work fine with a new certificate
with a shorter hash size. Okay. It wasn't really necessary to use such
paranoid settings, but I wanted to know what works. Now it seems that
GnuTLS is limiting this while OpenSSL and other libraries can handle it.
That's interesting.
