Now you can choose to compile Gauche with an embedded axTLS library to
support TLS connections.  However, the development of axTLS seems to slow
down, if not stopped, and it hasn't caught up with the recent standards.
Since we support MbedTLS as well, I'm considering dropping axTLS in the
next release.

The reason I kept axTLS was that it allowed Gauche binary to run without
depending on an external tls library at runtime.  However, you can
configure `--with-tls=mbedtls-internal` to compile MbedTLS in Gauche binary
if you don't want the runtime dependency.

Does anybody need to have axTLS rather than MbedTLS?
