  Compiled your line into assembly. Output is below, it is a long. Attached

Thanks.

I expect ".long" to be tested by GMP's configure, so what makes this
fail is beyond me.

As far as I know, it is not really possible to work with Free Software
for Apple's iOS, unless one is willing to pay Apple's programming tax.
Unfortunately, I am not about to do that.
