I don't even know if building a fat binary with MinGW64 is even possible, even in theory. My guess is 2.5.0 was simply ignoring the --enable-fat flag. As far as I know, building with the 32 bit version of MinGW supports --enable-fat though. But that is no use to you as you want a 64 bit binary.

It looks like you supplied --enable-fat when configuring MPIR. This is not supported under MinGW. Bill. On 25 May 2012 04:03, Pavel Holoborodko wrote: > Thank you for taking this problem under consideration. > > To see the full picture I've tried to compile MPIR from SVN\trunk. > There are many
