Test t-tdiv aborts (6.0.0a)

Greetings,

I am working to bootstrap GCC on Solaris, and having trouble with GMP 6.0.0a.

The failure is in check-TESTS in directory mpz:

bash: line 5: 17152 Segmentation Fault      (core dumped) ${dir}$tst
FAIL: t-tdiv

Traceback from dbx:

> dbx t-tdiv core
program terminated by signal SEGV (no mapping at the fault address) (fault address is just beyond end of stack)

Configured with:

CC=cc CXX=CC ./configure --enable-cxx --build=sparc-sun-solaris2.10

> cc -V
cc: Sun C 5.12 SunOS_sparc 2011/11/16
> uname -a
SunOS myhost 5.10 Generic_Virtual sun4v sparc sun4v
> ./config.guess
ultrasparc-sun-solaris2.10
> ./configfsf.guess
sparc-sun-solaris2.10

Note that I am explicitly using the 32-bit form, because the GCC bootstrap
recommendation is to use 32-bit.  (I started this bootstrap effort using 64-bit
and that build of GMP passed all tests.  When I switched back to 32-bit, I
wiped the GMP directory and created from a fresh one, extracted from the source
.bz2 again.)

I sort of assume this is exposing a subtle compiler bug, but need help working
around it or whatever.  Since all I want to do is bootstrap GCC with this (not
use it for any general computations), I suppose it's possible I can ignore this
particular failure, but I have no idea which parts of GMP get exercised in GCC
under what conditions.  Once I get GCC bootstrapped, I intend to rebuild GMP
using the bootstrapped GCC, because I have the impression that will generate a
64-bit version of GCC, which is what I want, ultimately.

Thanks,
