I'm trying to compile MinGW what is impossible without GMP. I tried to use
newest version 5.0.5. But when I try to compile gcc, compiled compiler
immediately crashes. The source of the crash is __gmpn_cpuid function in
mpn\x86_64\fat\fat_entry.asm . This function uses Linux AMD64 calling
convention instead of Windows AMD64 one needed for MinGW. Can GMP use
conditional compilation to provide a suitable version of this function?
I have no guess how you ended up with a build that includes assembly
code unsuitable for your host. Perhaps this is a GMP bug, perhaps you
worked around GMP's configure mechanims.
