I was able to build successfully on mingw32. I still had to delete the
lines containing "mpn_preinv_add" and "mpn_preinv_lshift" from fat.h.
I did delete all the .asm files from the /mpn directory. Did I miss
something?

I was able to work around the demos issue by using "touch *.c *.h" in
the demos/calc directory. If you do that before you create the
tarball, it should work.
