My fault. My patch fixes two things at the same time.
1/ The names of .def files was not correct, because an old soversion what
hardcoded in the configure.in file. That is a bug. I doubt anybody can report
that the mingw compilation works with --shared since the soversion of GMP has
changed.
2/ I have added a resource file so that the VERSIONINFO fields of the DLLs are
filled. That is not mandatory.
I will come back latter to you with a set of atomic self-consistent patches,
and change logs. Probably only after the weekend.
