I don't have Windows here right now. But a Windows Emacs user reported
on reddit/r/emacs that the new https forcing for marmalade was causing
their package-refresh-contents to fail.

Small tests showed that any https from Windows failed.

I've since found this:

This seems to describe the problem.

Could we just ship the gnutls dll with the rest of the Emacs W32 port?
