I'm happy to announce a maintenance release of the GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library (GMP). The 5.1.3 release includes a couple of bug fixes, and no new features. See NEWS excerpt below for details.
The release is available at ftp://ftp.gmplib.org/pub/gmp/gmp-5.1.3.tar.lz ftp://ftp.gmplib.org/pub/gmp/gmp-5.1.3.tar.xz ftp://ftp.gmplib.org/pub/gmp/gmp-5.1.3.tar.bz2 as well as on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gmp/ and its mirrors. Note that GMP exercises the corners of C arithmetic, and is likely to trigger C compiler bugs. Always run make check after building the library, and do *not* use the library if the testsuite fails. Further information, including the GMP manual, is available at the GMP homepage, http://gmplib.org/. On behalf of the GMP team, /Niels Möller Changes between GMP version 5.1.2 and 5.1.3 BUGS FIXED * The internal functions mpn_sbpi1_div_qr_sec mpn_sbpi1_div_r_sec could compute garbage with a low probability. They are now rewritten, and the test code has been improved. * A bug in the ia64 implementation of mpn_divrem_2, clobbering some callee-save registers, has been fixed. This is an internal function, with the bug manifesting itself as miscomputation in, e.g., mpn_sqrtrem. * The documentation now correctly says 'const' for input arguments. SPEEDUPS * None. FEATURES * None. MISC * None. -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred. Keyid C0B98E26.
