Thanks! The fix worked for that error. :) Here's what I get next on one
of my systems:

make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jotik/develop/gnutls/gnutls.git/src'
  CCLD   danetool
  CCLD   certtool
danetool.o: In function `dane_info':

Looks like another bug.

In addition is there a way to ./configure GnuTLS not to build these
tools? My goal is just to build a simple library.

Best regards,
