Hello David, First of all, please, follow advices already given. Learn more about cross-compilation of projects that require dependency.
The basic idea is to re-create filesystem structure at some prefix, compile and *install* all dependencies to this prefix. The prefix is provided by configure parameter, like './configure --prefix=/home/test/arm-root' or any other path at your choice. Then use PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable so pkg-config will take care of all required lib paths and flags for precompiler and linker. Alternatively, you can specify all required path in flags manually. From you config.log it's clear that GnuTLS failed to find required module from nettle. If you link with GnuTLS, you need to provide all libs and linker path for all libs required by GnuTLS. If those libraries require other libraries, you must specify them as well. That's why it's better to use pkg-config to automate it. Usage of both '--with-gnutls=/path/to/gnutls' AND CPPFLAGS='-I /path/to/gnutls/include' is redundant. You don't need both. Check result in you log. Same for LDFLAGS.
One more alternative: compile everything as static libs.It's interesting that MHD can still be compiled with so ancient Linux (2.6.18) and tools (GCC 4.2.3). Looks like we succeed in maintaining of backward compatibility.
One more note: looks like you specified somewhere path incorrectly. You have '/mnt/hgfs/Projects/GnuTLS/gnutls-3.6.15' and '/mnt/hgfs/Projects/gnutls/gnutls-3.6.15/'. It is not the same, this is two different paths on Linux.
Please, use more web search. You faced typical cross-compilation problems, there are many solutions on the web.

Hi,I've now cross-comiled GnuTLS and all of it's dependant libraries eg libnettle, libhogweed, libgmp.I now need to build libmicrohttpd and link it to my GnuTLS.

When I run configure for GnuTLS, I get "libNettle 3.4.1 was not found". I downloaded the source for libNettle 3.4.1 and built this, but when I re-configure GnuTLS with libNettle, I stilll get "libNettle 3.4.1 was not found" Reading up on this it seems I might also need to build libHogweed and libGMP libraries. Has anyone out there cross compiled all of these libraries and can help me to get all of these downloads and steps correct, so I can build an HTTPS-enabled MHD? Many thanks David
