"Stinking" and "stinker" are playful terms in American English--things you'd call your little kids when they're being cute or funny. It's more of a playful term. In this context it expresses excitement that I found the bug. To a non-native American English speaker, I can see the confusion. I was very calm when I wrote it.
I can see the confusion. I took the word out. > Can you explain concisely in which way absolute include paths made gmp configure break in your environment? In the answer <https://stackoverflow.com/a/77435216/4561887>, please jump halfway down, to the section titled "Explanation of the ${gcc_srcdir_RELATIVE}/configure relative path fix that works". I can neither explain it more nor less simply than that. At this point I'm no longer seeking help, but rather just sharing my findings in case it helps someone else.
