Yep - that seemed to apply ok.
And I *can* now build from a different directory by running
<ABS_DIR>/configure.

However, if (after running 'make distclean') I cd back to this patched
gmp-5.1.2 directory and run:

./configure --disable-shared --enable-static

the process teminates with the fatal error (transcribed):

configure: error: Oops, mp_limb_t doesn't seem to work

Do you see the same error, under those circumstances ?

Cheers,
Rob
