I regularly build Emacs on old Solaris systems that lack libraries that 
we require for typical builds (e.g., libgif). I haven't checked whether 
these systems also lack libgnutls, and don't much care whether they do. 
If they lack it, I'll configure --with-gnutls=no; if not, not. So I'm in 
favor of the change that I proposed. Emacs will still need to work even 
if libgnutls is absent, so I'm not sure what practical effect this will 
have on Emacs development in the short run. But it should encourage more 
packagers to make sure Emacs is linked with libgnutls.
