Subject: [mpir-devel] Another WIndows x64 Bug


Case has kindly tracked down another WIndows x64 bug in MPIR.


I'll add Case to the contributers list

A number of functions that return mp_bitcnt_t types were returning
ULONG_MAX on error rather than __GMP_BITCNT_MAX.

SInce unsigned longs are 32-bits on WIndows x64, these ULONG_MAX
values were not being seen as error returns.

I have now corrected all these erroneous return values in the MPIR
SVN.   There is a change in gmp-impl.h but it is small and should not
have a serious impact on the RC1 testing that has been done for the
upcoming release.

It's actually quicker for me just to do all the testing again rather than read through the changes , the automatic testing takes me <1min per network(ie skynet,gcc-farm,homenet) , the windows testing is not completly automatic , but when I start to run windows in a virtual machine I can do the same with that.
