It seems there's a bug with connecting to certain Windows Server hosts w/ 
certain configurations.  Upstream has already
fixed the issue, and I've supplied a version of the patch that should apply to 
the version Debian maintains.

The issue has to do with null certificates and Windows Server 2003 R2 hosts 
(and possibly others).  A null certificate
is not an error-condition, though it was being handled as such (and it seems 
the error handling has also been improved
upstream, given the bug report and the messages I was seeing w/ Debian's 
version).

Relevant GitHub (FreeRDP/FreeRDP) issue:

Thanks!
