I built the binaries for rpi OK.

However "make check" failed.

There's a missing #ifdef in a part of the source that never gets
compiled unless testing. So at normal runtime you would never notice.

Reported to bug-wget at gnu.org. But not in the current tarball.

Looks like it affects all platforms.

Cos we don't use SSL, line 2008 in init.c needs "#ifdef
HAVE_HSTS"/"#endif" around it, then all happy.
