How is this proceeding?

(I have been tempted to tackle this integration myself, but between
laptop failures and some other issues, I have not gotten around to it,
yet.)

I will say this:

Because of how J is typically installed, I think that the right
approach here would be to statically link against libgmp. Dynamic
links are appropriate in a variety of cases, but not this one, not for
the initial port. (Once libgmp is supported, it would be possible to
build J against a dynamically linked libgmp, but while that might be
right for some people, most people are not going to want to deal with
the consequences of that approach.)

Anyways, ... I might yet get around to tackling this by myself, but if
you're making good progress, I should probably either just wait or try
to pitch in on issues which are eating too much of your time.

Thanks,
