problem in C++ tests?

[Davide Del Vento]

Folks,

I need gmp as a dependence for other libraries. At first I successfully
compiled it with the default options (no C++) and it worked fine (all
tests passed). Then I realized that one of my other libraries required
the C++ version, so I recompiled. The make check reported three
failures, which from the error message I believe is something simple
like a misconfigured path, and not the more serious issue you describe
in your webpage: see snippet below and full (config and test logs in)
attachment. Note that the system is AIX and IBM compiler (xlc/xlC). Do
you have any recommendation about it?

Could not load program
/ptmp/ddvento/install/gmp-4.3.1/tests/cxx/.libs/lt-t-constr:
        Dependent module libgmpxx.a(libgmpxx.so.4) could not be loaded.
Could not load module libgmpxx.a(libgmpxx.so.4).
