I don't really understand what you want to do. Do you have certificates in 
gnutls_x509_crt structures and you want to verify them? Or do you have them 
in der (or pem) format and you want to import them to x509_crt structures?

We do certificate verification in certtool using the --verify-chain option, is 
this the functionality you are trying to achieve?
