It doesn't include any DLLs except libXpm (which is needed for the
tool-bar icons). It was built with GnuTLS, though, so if the end user
installs GnuTLS, Emacs will find it and use it.
(We never distributed Windows DLLs with Emacs, because that would
require us to host their sources, their dependencies, and the sources
of their dependencies on ftp.gnu.org, which IIRC raises all kinds of
questions and issues with their licenses.)
