Hi Bill,

...
>did you mean pointers and longs are 64 bits ?

Yes, for ABI=64 pointers and longs are 64 bits. I mis-entered the
information form the gmplib.org document.
...

I have established an ABI=64 operating environment along with the
default ABI=32 environment. Using the ABI=64 environment and modifying
the static function compound( ) in the file src/language/hash.c to be
called c_ompound( ), the 'make gp' is successful with no further issues.
However, the 'make dobench' return the following:

Making dobench in Ohpux-ia64

Only objets-dyn.dif shows something that looks like a failure

From objets-dyn.dif:

- ? Mod(10873,49649)^-1
-   ***   at top-level: Mod(10873,49649)^-1
-   ***                                 ^---
-   *** _^_: impossible inverse modulo: Mod(131, 49649).

None of the others show anything other than commands followed by results
with no error or exception indications. I can send you any or all of the 
actual .dif files, if that will help.

Thanks for your assistance,
Bill

Yes, for ABI=64 pointers and longs are 64 bits. I mis-entered the
information form the gmplib.org document.
