Bug#724320: gmp: x32: sizeof(mp_limb_t)!=sizeof(void*) is not supported by GAP and PARI

[Bill Allombert]

Package: libgmp-dev
Version: 2:5.1.2+dfsg-3
Severity: wishlist

Hello Steve,

On x32, GMP set sizeof(mp_limb_t) to 8, see
<http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gmp&arch=x32&ver=2%3A5.1.2%2Bdfsg-3&stamp=1379197327>

However this is incompatible with software that requires sizeof(mp_limb_t)==sizeof(void*),
like pari and gap, which then FTBFS on x32.

Cheers,
