I think you should include it anyway. It is of course good if packagers use and
test their own packages, but for a package with many features it must be
expected that the packager doesn't use all of the features himself. If someone
else wants to use it, and you have included it, then there's at least a chance
that it will work. If you omit it, it's 100% certain that it won't work.

If you can't get it to build, or if you know that it's broken, then that would
be a valid reason to omit it.

That's very unfortunate if you can't get it to work. That could explain why
Debian ships AWS without SSL support though.

I don't think I can approve the package if you do that. The OpenSSL license is
listed as incompatible with the GPL:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#SoftwareLicenses

This incompatibility was the reason why GnuTLS was written, so the FSF
obviously takes it seriously. It's not a fun situation but we have to comply
with the licenses.
