The condition limb != unsigned long is, I fear, poorly tested.
Almost exactly one year after:

:-)
All the code I've found about it, assumes that an UI fits in one or two
limbs, but the tests are different.
mpz/iset_ui.c, line 30, reads:
#if BITS_PER_ULONG > GMP_NUMB_BITS /* avoid warnings about shift amount */
mpz/iset_si.c, line 39:
#if GMP_NAIL_BITS != 0
gmpxx.h, line 61:
#if GMP_NAIL_BITS != 0 && ! defined _LONG_LONG_LIMB
gmp-h.in, line 1730:
#if GMP_NAIL_BITS == 0 || defined (_LONG_LONG_LIMB)
The first one is the one I prefer.
If you want to use it in gmp.h or gmpxx.h that don't have BITS_PER_ULONG,
would you replace it with a comparison between ULONG_MAX (from limits.h)
and GMP_NUMB_MAX?
Note that mpir is replacing signed/unsigned long by two typedefs that can
be defined as (unsigned) long long on _LONG_LONG_LIMB platforms. That
works around the problem too...
