I encountered a problem with GMP when using the march flag.
I build GMP 6.1.1 with march=corei7 or march=westmere with GCC 5.4.0
on a server with a Haswell processor (E5-2630 v3). When executing curl
(version 7.47.0 on Ubuntu 16.04) which uses GMP to retrieve a https
website on a system with a Westmere Processor (Intel Xeon E5645) it
crashes with the error: Illegal instruction (core dumped).
No GMP bug. You're not following the doumented procedures. Don't
override CFLAGS like that, it is ineffective and as you omitted any -O
also a disaster for performance.
You might find it helpful to read the GMP manual's chapter "Installing
GMP". There are many good suggestions there!
