I believe this is the logic triggered in this case:

More embarrassments. :-)
I ran some timing tests without my proposed change and with the squqring
exception code still there. Please consider the following two
measurements for doing n x 19 limb (first table) and n x 20 limb
multiplication.

since 2004 we did implement in MPFR "short" product/square/division,
which compute an approximation of the upper n limbs of

I am surprised that there are non-marginal differences for larger
operations. Don't we all use mpn? Bookkeeping s

Changes between GMP version 4.3.X and 5.0.0

FEATURES
[...]
* New mpn functions: mpn_sqr, mpn_and_n, mpn_ior_n, mpn_xor_n, mpn_nand_n,

MISC
* The mpn_mul function should no longer be used for squaring,
instead use the new mpn_sqr.
Dear GMP developers,
I have updated my comparison of multiple-precision floating-point software.
The old page was comparing MPF from GMP 5.0.2 with (among others) MPFR 3.1.2:
http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-3.1.2/timings.html
Here, MPF was only faster than MPFR for 100d mul and sqr, and 1000d di
