GMP 4.2.4 doesn't pass self-tests on itanium2-hp-hpux11.23

[Максим Зиналь]

Hello and thank you for your reply!
In fact I was able to solve the problem by your build instructions - shame
on me for missing the appropriate chapter in the installation manual.

Yes. It all works fine, as it should.

The compiler documentation says that it is not safe to link '-mt' and
'non-mt' binaries. The resulting executable will not be fully
pthread-compatible.

It works perfectly as well as "./configure ABI=64".

Thank you very much, again.
