OpenConnect ignores the gateway's proposed MTU

Hi,
when connecting to a VPN server with OpenConnect, the MTU on the created
tun interface is too high (1418) and TCP connections are broken as soon
as large packages are transmitted. The gateway operator told me that the
gateway sends a MTU of 1330 which is also what the Cisco AnyConnect
client sets on the cscotun0 interface. Manually setting the MTU to 1330
on OpenConnect's interface fixes all problems.
I have seen that in the changelog of v4.03 it says "Fix handling of
requested vs. received MTU settings.", however I do still have the
problem with openconnect v4.07 (on 64-bit Arch Linux).
