Hello GMP developers,

I would like to report some issues compiling latest code from default mercurial branch:
$ hg tip
changeset:   14835:1e4085291ae4
tag:         tip
user:        Marco Bodrato <bodrato at mail.dm.unipi.it>
date:        Mon Apr 16 07:35:54 2012 +0200
summary:     mpz/bin_uiui.c (mpz_bdiv_bin_uiui): Use precomputed factorials to init.

The system information is the same as in this post (http://gmplib.org/list-archives/gmp-bugs/2012-April/002609.html).

Now, for the issues.

Issue 1
Is related to latest changes in "mpz/bin_uiui.c" . The actual issue is an assertion failure in tests/mpz/t-bin

make[4]: Entering directory `/d/Prjs/mingw_src/gmp-build-64/tests/mpz'
[...other tests that pass...]

PASS: t-jac.exe
sbpi1_bdiv_q.c:81: GNU MP assertion failed: np[0] == 0

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
FAIL: t-bin.exe


Reason I am saying is related to latest changes in "mpz/bin_uiui.c" is that if I replace it with a pre-"2012-04-13 Marco Bodrato <bodrato at mail.dm.unipi.it>" version, the test passes without assertion.

Issue 2
Is related with latest changes in mpn/x86_64/coreisbr/lshift.asm, mpn/x86_64/coreisbr/lshiftc.asm, etc
The build issue is that lots of tests/mpn/* fail with SIGSEV

Root cause is that the new mpn/x86_64/coreisbr/*.asm files are declared as supporting WIN64 ABI (ABI_SUPPORT(DOS64)), but the actual implementation in mpn/x86_64/fastsse/*.asm does not really support that. Following patch, while not necessary up to GMP coding standards and asm speed standards solves the issue (issue 1 still remains).
Attached gmp-0004-mingw64-asm.patch

Best Regards,
Gabriel
