One more thought:

In a site-wide installation of emacs it is more likely that one or
the other emacs user finds himself in the situation that he needs to
run gnutls with whatever special option that might be more difficult
to achieve with the new builtin gnutls code. So it might be good to
have an option for disabling this builtin code in a cleaner way than
redefining the builtin function gnutls-available-p.
