Hi,
I'm packaging the latest GMP source (5.1.1) that has been patched for
x32 support. I've also fixed up the gmp.h include to use the
__ILP32__ define, per https://sites.google.com/site/x32abi/ to
distinguish between x86_64 and x32.
The last issue is whether debian/rules needs any changes. The wiki
http://wiki.debian.org/X32Port says x32 is an ABI of the amd64 cpu.
>From the Debian point of view, will it be a proper architecture where
"$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE)-gcc" will always behave as if given "-mx32"
(e.g. define __ILP32__)?
Thanks,
-Steve
