Hi!

I had problems with the optional gmp-4.2.1 spkg. After some half-
succeeding attempts to fix it, I tried to upgrade the spkg to the
latest upstream code: It works like a charm (i.e., builds and passes
self-tests)!

If someone is interested: #12661 provides a new gmp-5.0.4.spkg
(intended to be optional, of course) and needs review.

The old spkg had a lot of patches. So far, the new applies none of
them - on openSuse, the unpatched code passes tests. However, I'd be
glad if the patch authors could check whether the fixes (some of them
addressing platform specific issues) all made it upstream.

According to the old spkg's SPKG.txt, it is needed to upgrade the
optional polymake spkg if gmp is upgraded. I haven't tried it.

Best regards,
Simon
