Could it possible to get a version of gmp compiled with --enable-mpfr ... or even better libmpfr 2.0.3 compiled and packaged seperately, though it has a requirement to be built along with libgmp (The two projects teams have split, gmp 4.x is distributed with the two year old mpfr 2.0.1. The next major release of gmp will not include mpfr at all). I have compiled and installed it on my own without difficulty. My main reason for requesting this is that GFortran 95, which will come with upcoming GCC 4.0, requires libmpfr to build. Furthermore, the main GCC developers have been receptive to the proposal that all of GCC 4.1 be modified to use libmpfr for its internal math optimiziations instead of its homegrown routines.

If mpfr isn't bundled anymore we'll provide a separate package. > I have compiled and installed it on my own without difficulty. > My main reason for requesting this is that GFortran 95, which will come > with upcoming GCC 4.0, requires libmpfr to build.

Or if it is required to have a more recent mpfr version for this then we could remove mpfr from the GMP package and build mpfr seperately.

From: Gerrit P. Haase > This release includes mpfr as a shared library.

Testsuite is still running but OK so far. > Or if it is required to have a more recent mpfr version for this then we > could remove mpfr from the GMP package and build mpfr seperately. I intend restarting my regular builds of cvs gcc on cygwin ASAP (today?), so we should be able to identify any issues promptly.
