Problem compiling 4.2.4 on Solaris 10 with Sun Studio 12

[John Center]

Hi,

I was unable to compile GMP 4.2.4 on Solaris 10 with Sun Studio 12.  The 
errors were:

"ismpf.cc", line 53: Error: Could not find a match for 
std::use_facet<std::Facet
 >(const std::locale) needed in operator>>(std::istream &, __mpf_struct*).
"ismpf.cc", line 53: Error: Could not find a match for 
std::use_facet<std::Facet
 >(const std::locale) needed in operator>>(std::istream &, __mpf_struct*).
"ismpf.cc", line 65: Error: Could not find a match for 
std::use_facet<std::Facet
 >(const std::locale) needed in operator>>(std::istream &, __mpf_struct*).
3 Error(s) and 11 Warning(s) detected.
gmake[2]: *** [ismpf.lo] Error 1

I found a patch on gmp-bugs for GMP 4.2.1 for Sun Studio 11 from July 
2006 by Matthias Koeppe 
(http://gmplib.org/list-archives/gmp-bugs/2006-July/000519.html) that 
worked for me.  Could this, or one similar to it, be added to the patch 
list on the home page & incorporated in the next release?

Thanks.

	-John
