I guess mpn_sqr_n, being undocumented, is only directly reached from

The question might better be why kara_sqr_n etc are in with mpn_mul_n
where they're not used, rather than mpn_sqr_n where they are.
True.
I'll reorganize this once the ongoing toom3 rewrite has settled.

cat */*.c | cc :)
Good idea!
Since you're the main configure/make maintainer,
I will wait for you to enhance the build system to accomodate
vector machines with that suggested improvement. :-)
