hmm gnutls isnt used at all by e17... that's only used in 2 places:

1. eet for signed/encrypted eet files. no edje/eet files e uses/deals with use
this, so it wont be used.
2. ssl connectiones in ecore-con - only used for doing remote connections.
won't be used anywhere here. gnutls on/off is creating some other side effect -
unknown what it is though.
