gmp-4.2 performance on x86_64

[Ashod Nakashian]

Hi!

Does that include my code as well? I added a few modules for some basic 
operations to a previous patch for x86_64 (this was a while back, 
searching the mail-list archives should be useful). May be somebody 
improved on them, may be somebody wrote a better (read: faster) version. 
But they did improve the benchmarks for me (compared to the original + 
Pierrick's patch).

Regards,
Ashod Nakashian
