MPIR is definately not the problem. It's whatever test is used to check the version of GMP that is causing the problem. Perhaps the macro sees MPIR as version 1.2 and thinks that is less than GMP 3.1.1 so thinks GMP is too old. I looked at the macro to test the version of GMP and could not understand it, but my knowledge of 'm4' is next to nothing. But I did notice the version needed is hard-coded in the macro, which is not the right way to do a check like this. It is normal to write a macro which takes a version number as an argument.
