Emacs can be linked with Gnutls since Emacs 24.1. You have to compile it
that way though. I think this is perhaps part of the reason why a bunch
of bugs related to the old non-builtin TLS support are piling up. Eg
19283, 19284, 20078. IMO these issues really need to be addressed before
the next release.
