I've added support as per Mariah's recommendation in trunk. It only supports ABI=64 not n32 so I've changed that to the first one tried for that arch. I had to edit acinclude.m4 to make sure it excluded pathcc from the list of compilers it tested to see if it was a gcc compiler, otherwise it just

We need to find a way to disable make install/check for yasm easily , so that we can upgrade yasm without hassle . Currently I disabled each Makefile.am in each src directory for the install , there was about 15 files , and for make check I think there was another 20 or so , yuck. Perhaps cha

This includes some updates we'd like to have. But I think we'll put off the upgrade to 1.2.0, as we don't want to break anything now that we are so close to a release. Bill. 2009/4/11 mabshoff : > > By the way: Yasm 0.8 was released *today*, so we might want to upgrade > for the next major relea

By the way: Yasm 0.8 was released *today*, so we might want to upgrade for the next major release of MPIR anyway: Changes from 0.7.2 to 0.8.0: * Add TASM-like basic syntax and frontend (contributed by Samuel Thibault). * Add movbe instruction and CPU feature. * Use UNIX (not Windows) path fun

The yasm tests fail on so many systemss that I think we should work harder to disable them. They really aren't relevant to the MPIR library. Yasm itself works fine, whether or not the tests pass and the real test of that for us is whether the library passes make check. Bill. 2009/4/11 mabshoff :

Thanks Jeff. This now agrees with what I am getting. My guess is that we used a different autoconf to build the latest RC and that deals correctly with Cygwin. We'll keep an eye on this in future releases. I can check that Cygwin works on my machine, for example. Your config.guess script is cor
