  I agree, but this is not what the GMP 6.0.0 manual says:
  
   -- Function: int mpz_probab_prime_p (const mpz_t N, int REPS)
       Determine whether N is prime.  Return 2 if N is definitely prime,
       return 1 if N is probably prime (without being certain), or return
       0 if N is definitely composite.
  
  which implies that a number is either prime or composite. This is wrong!

Will do 's;composite;non-prime;'.
