 <h3> GMP release update </h3>
 
-<p> GMP 5.1.0 is out 2012-12-18.  An equivalent 5.1.0a is available from the
-gnu.org servers since 2013-02-02; these releases will generate the exact same
-binaries.  The difference between them is a minor automake issue which
-hyopthetically affects 5.1.0 (if users run the distcheck target, a malicous
-user might insert a file into a momentarily world-writable directory).  All
-previous GMP releases are also affected, as well as almost all other GNU
-software.
+<p> GMP 5.1.1 is out 2013-02-11.
 </p>
 
-<p> Note that GMP newer than 5.0 on x86 or ARM cannot typically use valgrind.
-To run GMP under valgrind for x86-64, it might work with version 3.8; we know
-for sure that 3.7 does not work at least not if GMP was compiled with a recent
-GCC.  The ARM problem is that ARMv6 instructions that we use are missing from
-valgrind, here anything newer than valgrind 3.8 is needed (but the valgrind
-repo code should be OK).
