Hello,

does anyone know if there is a way to identify the CPU a particular GMP =
library has been configured/built for? For example, using an AMD ATHLON =
based library on an Intel platform can cause a GP fault. A prudent =
program using GMP library should first check if the installed GMP is CPU =
"compatible" before trying to use the library.

thanks

Juro
