The Autoconf manual has long said that the 3rd argument of AC_INIT must be an
email address.
Which is a bad idea, we don't want people blindly sending an email, we
want them to read instructions first. A URL makes more sense.
To fix the problem, I suggest using just [gmp-bugs@gmplib.org] as the 3rd
argument of AC_INIT, as being the simplest; or if you want the commentary,
put it in as valid RFC 5322 commentary, e.g., by parenthesizing it:
diff -r 18875a0a3f89 configure.ac
--- a/configure.ac Tue Nov 10 18:17:13 2020 +0100

Thanks, that looks like a nice workaround.
