Re: `checking size of mp_limb_t... 0` and `configure: error: Oops, mp_limb_t doesn't seem to work` when compiling the Microchip XC32 compiler from source

Marc, yes, I see that too now. For anyone wondering where that is, here it is: https://github.com/ElectricRCAircraftGuy/Microchip_XC32_Compiler/blob/main/xc32-v4.35-src/pic32m-source/gmp-6.1.0/acinclude.m4#L125-L140 What I'm calling, by the way, inside build-xc32-v4.35m.sh, is this:

Re: Make check fail on GMP-6.3.0 after installing macOS Sonoma 14.0 (23A344)

We are not in a position to debug this, as we don't have recent enough Mac x86 hardware for running recent enough macos to run these later problematic Apple compilers. No, I am not making this up, Apple likes to play these games with what is supported where. An educated guess is that this is an

"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

Thanks, Niels. I had been looking in config.log and came across a failure to include a file with an absolute path. I found the solution and wrote about it here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/77435216/4561887 On Fri, Nov 3, 2023 at 9:50 AM Niels Möller wrote: > When debugging configure issues,
