I deleted all components and started again: 
The same error happens: 

[build]    gnutls 

Failed to build package gnutls! 
------------------------------------------------------------ 
configure: error: 
  ***

I think that this is fault of native windows build.

This is my first time to see about Libnettle. Perhaps most windows user do not 
know it.
If  Libnettle 2.7 is requirements, it should also be built before gnutls build 
for MXE for native build.
