I'm using Debian GNU/Linux (sid).  `libgnutls-extra' is linked against
`libgnutls' which does include `liblgnu' (and `read_binary_file ()').
However, `libgnutls' does not export `read_binary_file ()':

  $ objdump -T lib/.libs/libgnutls.so | grep read_binary_file
  [ nothing ]

Thus, it seems "logical" to me to also link `libgnutls-extra' against
`liblgnu'.  Now, I can imagine that this might fail on some other
platform...

Thanks,
Ludo'.
