Actually, that's very helpful.  Use of the autotools is something of a
black art, and unless you've worked on a project like this, you can't be
expected to know how makefile.am etc. should be modified.  

As far as your include directory goes, though, I'm not sure that's for
configure to discover.  I think that should be part of your preëxisting
environment; the compiler should be able to find your include file without
configure's help.  

And, just to check something:

> with_openssl=1 ./configure
> make

I think the same thing can be done by:

	$ ./configure --with-gnutls

Tell me if not, because else there should be a configure option to control
what you did.
