multimedia/avifile (by default) depends on x11-toolkits/qt33 (due to the
USE_QT_VER=3 statement in the Makefile)
x11-toolkits/qt33 (by default) depends on print/cups-base
print/cups-base (by default) depends on security/gnu-tls
This means that gnutls and cups-base gets pulled in as indirect
dependencies. avifile itself probably doesn't need them.

Either use WITHOUT_QT when compiling avifile (which will lose you
some functionality - in particular the aviplay command needs QT)
or compile qt33 with WITHOUT_CUPS (and hope that no other program you have
that uses QT breaks due to this.)
