I cannot see that GMP today allows specifying `--host=x86_64-v3-...'

binaries on such distributions.

I would not expect any significant speedups for users of gmp fat builds
(which is what most or all distros are providing).

That's true, didn't think of that, probably not worth it then.

Have there been thoughts of allowing such triplets?

Is it really "x86_64-v3" with a dash in it? That might complicate the
splitting of a "triplet" into cpu-vendor-os.

I'd expect GMP to support any kind of cpu names supported and encouraged
by autoconf, plus the more specific cpu model names recognized by gmp.

At least I cannot get it to work, or find anything related in `config.sub' or `configure.ac'.

Best,
Albin
