Hi all,

I was investigating Yhc's use of the gmp library when I came across this message on the gmp website (http://www.swox.com/gmp/#STATUS).

[2006-05-04] GMP does not build on MacInteltosh machines. No fix planned.

I would assume Intel Macs are a target platform (indeed an Intel Mac is one of our four buildbot slaves) so I guess this is a problem. Further investigation reveals this thread ( http://swox.com/list-archives/gmp-bugs/2006-April/000317.html) on the gmp mailing list where a patch to work around a bug in Apple's ld is rejected by the developers. Anyone know any more about this, or have any suggestions?

Andrew
