I'm waiting on the new (even awesome-er) SSL support coming in 3.6 (hi
Jeff) before I add the SSL features to puppet-gluster [1,2]. As an
aside, in an upcoming version of puppet-gluster I'm switching the
/etc/fstab based mounting of volumes to use an exec{} based
"glusterfs" command, so that we can support other options such as
these ones if they're needed.

If anyone wants this sooner, or wants SSL support for 3.3/3.4 in
puppet-gluster, let me know.
