Ok, I found the configure script after installing gnutls dev packages.  It 
seemed to be set correctly (and no errors) but the compiled executable still 
didn't have an SSL option.  

However, due to some other larger problems, I've dumped Mint and am now using 
Slackware.  So I now have Pan 134 running over stunnel again.  

I have a fair bit of configuration to do and I have to relearn Slackware again 
while doing it.  (It's been years.)  But once that's done, I'm going to have 
another whack or two at this if only for my own satisfaction. 

Thanks to all.  I'll post again when I try to compile Pan with TLS (and it 
doesn't work for me).
