Is this something to report to mpfr or gmp maintainers or here?
You should first try a recent version of GMP. The one from
download_prerequisites is older than Android...
If we need to update download_prerequisites we can easily do that.
Andrew.
See my most recent question about current version and stability.
Also, version 5.0.0 did not resolve the issue.
5.0.0 is not that recent either...
(why anyone would first try version x.y.0 when many x.y.z are available is
beyond me)
Additionally, while I can configure gmp on Android, I cannot build it
as some of the dependencies...specifically mpn...require M4 and
setting M4=m4-not-needed does not work for them.
Passing --disable-assembly to configure might make m4 optional (in gmp-6).
While I'm working on
porting a lot of standard linux utilities to Android, I'm limited to
those that require a minimum of reconfiguration and/or ones that I'm
somewhat familiar with. M4 is outside of both of those requirements.
I don't think m4 should be hard to port (but I have no experience with
android).
