Hi Steve,

the postgresql-pgmp author found a fix so this isn't an issue anymore:

https://github.com/dvarrazzo/pgmp/issues/18
https://github.com/dvarrazzo/pgmp/commit/04274c40b63d3dff758bee47c8525112d64d1ab2

I don't know the gmp internals, but I guess this fix might be
applicable to other gmp users as well if they have problems.
