Thanks for clarifying, I can see now the warning does not affect any 
functionality. While Ubuntu security updates do mention various patches, I 
have not researched deeply if everything was fully fixed, so probably the 
warning may be useful for some users.

An unrelated question: another warning I get is "imported binding for 
DL_LOAD_PATH overwritten in module BinDeps". This env variable is not 
anywhere in the GnuTLS.jl code, but interestingly the message is generated 
only when "using GnuTLS". Anything to worry about here? Would other Julia 
packages dependent on external libraries not find their dependencies?
