Hmm.  Doesn't look good.  Hard to say what's wrong.  It looks like all
the right -m64 and -Wa are there to get 64-bit mode.  Does a "hello
world" program work with that gcc in 64-bits?

You can force the test with for instance

	./configure gmp_cv_asm_underscore=

assuming it's a non-underscore system.  But I'd guess if it has
trouble at that stage then it'll bomb later on too.

You might get more joy from ABI=32, though it'll run slower.
