Yes, something like that was reported to the list a few months ago. By
default, Intel's compiler uses the equivalent to gcc's -ffast-math. You
need to give it some option so it doesn't ignore denormals.

I believe this only affects the testsuite (that is, you can safely use
the libgmp you built) but I never checked to be sure.
