  That is fails at t-bswap is another indication that this could be a 32

  It turns out that a friend of mine put is distribution on my machine
  and it compiles and checks cleanly.  It is a funny thing that the
  sizes of the distributions are the same.  I got mine from your sight
  gmplib.org.  He doesn't seem to remember where he got his.  Perhaps
  using Darwin Ports or fink.
  
By "distribution", you mean sources

  I was going to include his distribution here but since I use Goggle
  Apps - they won't let me send it for 'security reasons'.  (They
  complain about executables in the distribution)  I've written to
  Google complaining that since I have paid email service I should be
  able to send these files.  (!!)
  
  For now I seem to have a gmp library installed - but I don't trust the
  source.  I'd rather use your distribution directly.
  
  Thanks for all your help.
