 Changes between GMP version 5.0.3 and 5.0.4
 
   BUGS FIXED
-
-  * Thresholds in powm_sec for both fat and non-fat builds are now
-    used safely, plugging a one-word buffer overrun introduced in the
-    5.0.3 release (for non-fat) and a multi-word buffer overrun that
-    existed since 5.0 (for fat).  (We have not been able to provoke
-    malign stack smashing in any of the ~100 configurations explored
-    by the GMP nightly builds, but the bug should be assumed to be
-    exploitable.)

   * A bug in the test suite causing buffer overruns during "make check",
     sometimes leading to subsequent malloc crashes, has been fixed.
 
-  * Two bugs in the gcd code have been fixed.  They could lead to
-    incorrect results, but for uniformly distributed random operands,
-    the likelihood for that is infinitesimally small.  (There was also
-    a third bug, but that was an incorrect ASSERT, which furthermore
