To make sure I understand the issue, this is to get flags like -m32 passed on to the linker? > I am not sure there are no side-effects conflicting with the author's > intended Makefile behaviour. I don't think so. But I think the right way is to simply add $(CFLAGS) to the linker command line. That's the usual way to use it, right? And omitting it in the linking rule in mini-gmp/tests/Makefile is a bug. > Another problem with the Makefile.am check-mini-gmp code has surfaced. > It overrides LD_LIBRARY_PATH (and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH) for the entire > mini-gmp build.

To do something more specific to the tests, how should that be named? Should we adopt the EMULATOR variable (from automake, not sure if it's still in the current version)? Then one would set EMULATOR="LD_LIBRARY_PATH=... DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=..." \ $(MAKE) ... when running mini-gmp tests. I think EMULATOR is already supported by the version of run-tests script which is in mini-gmp, it runs the test programs ("$1" is the executable to be run) using if [ -z "$EMULATOR" ] || head -1 "$1" | grep '^#!' > /dev/null; then "$1" $testflags else $EMULATOR "$1" $testflags fi > There is also a problem with t-signed on ppc64 machines. I noticed one of those failures, and it was't trivially reproducible on x86_64. Needs some investigation. The first failure was also a bit interesting, an internal compiler error with gcc-6. In file included from gmp/mini-gmp/tests/testutils.c:24:0: gmp/mini-gmp/tests/../mini-gmp.c: In function 'mpz_set_d': gmp/mini-gmp/tests/../mini-gmp.c:1647:3: internal compiler error: Aborted if (x != x || x == x * 0.5) ^~ https://gmplib.org/devel/tm/gmp/build/failure/sky.gmplib.org-dyn-fat-fake:64.txt Begs for a proper gcc bug report, I guess. I fail to log in to sky, via nshell, at the moment ("ssh -p 2222 localhost" on shell fails with connection refused). And this failure was on the non-virtualized host sky, right, not on one of the vms? /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred. Keyid 368C6677.
