Nobody stepped up to fix this issue, so I suggest that we apply my
patch disabling MbedTLS support in bctoolbox for the time being. If
someone, one day, needs MbedTLS support in bctoolbox, that someone can
always fix it up.
I'm personally not interested in bctoolbox/C++/MbedTLS debugging, so I
won't investigate this build issue.
Best regards,
Thomas
