Apparently with 1.21.3, the NTLM feature can't be disabled if the nettle
library is detected to be present. 

I suspect that commit a24e67e239e changed things so that the presence of
nettle overrides the user's explicit selection of disabling NTLM.

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/wget.git/commit/?h=v1.21.3&id=a24e67e239ef949cc77a4c4e5a0beb703026a296

With the previous 1.21.2, the --disable-ntlm option worked ok, and the NTLM
feature could be disabled even if the nettle library is present.


Extract from the configure step from the build log:
...
--localstatedir=/var --mandir=/usr/man --infodir=/usr/info --disable-nls 
--disable-rpath --disable-iri --disable-pcre2 --with-included-libunistring
--without-libuuid --without-libpsl --disable-ntlm --without-ssl ; fi; )
