Plain make check (i.e., main gmp testsuite) fails in the mpn subdir with

  FAIL: t-get_d
  =============
  
  Warning, IEEE denorm tests skipped due to SIGFPE (exp=-1075)
  FAIL t-get_d (exit status: 136)

And make check-mini-gmp fails with

  /home/nisse/hack/gmp/mini-gmp/tests/run-tests: line 65: 21336 Floating
  point exceptionLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$TEST_LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
  DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$TEST_DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" "$1" $testflags
  FAIL: t-double
  /home/nisse/hack/gmp/mini-gmp/tests/run-tests: line 65: 21353 Floating
  point exceptionLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$TEST_LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
  DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$TEST_DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" "$1" $testflags
  FAIL: t-cmp_d

So for now, I'd say this isn't mini-gmp's fault. What kind of floating
point does alpha support? I noticed that CFLAGS included -mieee, perhaps
that's a mode not implemented properly in qemu?
