Win32 GMP 4.1.2 without cygwin

[manolo@el-mundo.net]

I have generated a .lib from .def with the lib tools that VC has. 
Something like

LIB /def:libgmp-3.dll-def

Then you have to link it with you exe, it will load your dll.

I have deleted all "@ number" from the def file so it uses import by 
name, so I can use the same .lib with differen processor versions of the 
dll.
