Roger,

 thank you for your fast reply,
I had set fp-model source, since this Rounds intermediate results to
source-defined precision. [0]

gmp builds correctly with precise.

It seems gmp does not correctly define the precision then?
(or the new compiler version ignores it, in which case someone should
open a bug report with intel)
