Warning when using gmp 64 bits in vcpkg

[William Galway]

I suggest that Cristofer submit the information requested in the manual:
  https://gmplib.org/manual/Reporting-Bugs

In particular, they should send
 * The version of gmp they are using.
 * The output produced by running './configure', when building gmp.  They
should show
   any options that they may have passed to 'configure'.
 * The name and version of the compiler.  For gcc this can be found with
the command
   'gcc -v'.
 * The output from running 'uname -a'

In short, please provide the information that would let someone reproduce
the error message.

As Torbjörn pointed out, the error message is not a bug, and you can safely
ignore that particular message.

-- Regards, Will
