gnutls.c does not include <gnutls.h>, but <gnutls/gnutls.h>, so you
need to have in the include path a subdirectory gnutls with the
approppriate .h files. For example, what I do is to install GnuTLS
somewhere, let's say C:\soft\gnutls-2.10.1, and then add to my Emacs
include directory a link (a junction) to
C:\soft\gnutls-2.10.1\include\gnutls:

  C:\emacs\include> dir
  25/04/2011  15:58    <JUNCTION>    gnutls
[c:\soft\GnuTLS-2.10.1\include\gnutls]
  05/11/2009  15:39         <DIR>    X11
  24/10/2005  21:22          16.055  gif_lib.h
  04/05/2006  21:23           4.902  iconv.h

  12/12/2002  21:29          14.330  jmorecfg.h

  28/03/2006  10:35          23.216  tiffio.h
  23/03/2006  16:46             410  tiffvers.h

but of course you can simply copy gnutls.h and compat.h to a suitable
gnutls directory, and then add the parent of it to the include path.

In any case, take a look at nt/config.log. If you didn't use
--without-gnutls, and configure.bat was unable to find GnuTLS, you'll
see

  junk.c:1:28: fatal error: gnutls/gnutls.h: No such file or directory
  compilation terminated.
  The failed program was:
  #include "gnutls/gnutls.h"
  main (){}
