errors during and after compiling gmp 5.0.2 with gcc 4.5.0 on SuSE 11.3

[Martin Schröder]

Hello,
i'd like to report some possible bugs in The GNU
Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library.
Tonight  I poked around with it and encountered some errors
during compiling and after running the "make check" routines.

First of all, to get the succesfully configured build system to compile
the library, I had to comment out
the line "Error, error, this data is for 62 bits" in several .h and .c
files.
These files were

fib_table.h
mp_bases.h
mpn/mp_bases.c
mpn/fib_table.c
mpn/perfsqr.h
mpz/fac_ui.h


After compiling the library with gcc 4.5.0, I was running "make check"
as recommended, and got two more errors.
