Torbjörn,
    I believe David is referring to the patch I proposed in...

http://gmplib.org/list-archives/gmp-bugs/2010-January/001787.html

which implements the recommendation of the Apple programmers from...

http://lists.apple.com/archives/Darwin-dev/2010/Jan/msg00024.html

Unlike the previously proposed patches for this problem, this one
eliminates all testsuite failures and the changes are contained to
darwin to work around their assembler bugs.
              Jack
