Which appears to be an inconsistency in the Microsoft build process since the build succeeds without having to add this library in later Windows OS's. I would guess that adding psapi.lib to the build would solve this since this would hopefully not cause problems on later OS builds where it is not needed. But I doubt that its worth taking the risk in order to solve a problem on Windows XP since this is now a rather old OS. >> If you can tarck it down to an MPIR issue, I will happily see if any >> changes needed can be incorporated into MPIR. > > I'm having a hard time understanding the build-process, so that would > be next to impossible.

If you have a solution, please don't feel the need to do this as it is very unlikely that the MPIR build files for MSVC 2010 will be updated to accommodate any needed changes as they are no longer being maintained (and won't be unless someone volunteers to do this).
