Hello Peter,
In the readme.txt file it says:
-------------------------------
You will also need to move the yasm.rules file from this distribution
into the directory
where Visual Studio 2008 expects to find it, which is typically:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC
\VCProjectDefaults
-------------------------------
Did you find the place on your computer where Visual Studio Express is
installed?
If so can you tell us where it is?
If you found it, did you move the yasm.rules file into the \VC
\VCProjectDefaults subdirectory inside your Visual Studiuo Express
installation directory?
In the readme.txt file it says:
-------------------------------
If you wish to use the assembler files you will need the YASM
x86/x64 assembler (r1438 or later) for Windows which can be
obtained from:
http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/
This assembler should be placed in the bin directory used by
VC++, which, for Visual Studio 2008, is typically:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin
It should be named yasm.exe.
-------------------------------
Did you download win32.exe from:
http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/wiki/Download
and rename it to yasm.exe?
Did you then move yasm.exe into the \VC\bin subdirectory inside your
Visual Studiuo Express installation directory?
>From the error messages it looks as if you have not done either or
both of these steps. Or you have not done them properly.
I noticed also that you are trying to build version 1.1 of MPIR. You
might consider moving to MPIR 1.2
