Unfortunately with Emacs this causes "configure --help" to output two disagreeing lines for --with-openssl; one incorrect one, put out by the AC_ARG_WITH in m4/gl-openssl.m4, and one correct one, put out by the above call. Come to think of it, the GNU coding standards say that --with-openssl should configure the system to use the OpenSSL library (and fail if it's not available, presumably; that's what gl_GC and gl_LIBSELINUX do), but the recently-added code doesn't do that; it issues a warning and disables the library instead. Maybe we should be more consistent with the rest of Gnulib here?
