Strange behavior of mpf_inp_str

[Paul Zimmermann]

       Ron,

there were several issues with mpf_set_str and mpf_inp_str in previous GMP
releases. See http://gmplib.org/oldrel/. Please make sure you are using
GMP 5.0.1. To check that, compile and run the following program with the
same compiler command as the program giving the strange behaviour (or even
better include this in your program):

#include "gmp.h"
int
main()
{
  printf ("GMP library: %s\n", gmp_version);
  printf ("GMP include: %d.%d.%d\n", __GNU_MP_VERSION, __GNU_MP_VERSION_MINOR,
          __GNU_MP_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL);
}
