Hi,
well, we already use libmicrohttpd, and libmicrohttpd is already linked
against gnutls (in Fedora and Debian at least). So if one is using
libmicrohttpd, than it seems reasonable to stick to gnutls.

OTOH, libmicrohttpd is quite awful. I have been having a lot of
trouble integrating libmicrohttp in my own epoll loop. I would
be happy to replace it with something different.
