-Here is how to compile GNU MP.
-
-You probably want to use the GNU C compiler to build this library.
-With other compilers the speed of the library will be 3-10 times
-slower for many CPU:s. The reason for this is that the GNU C compiler
-will use inline assembler for some important operations, while other C
-compilers will have to stick to plain C code.
-
-This is how to build the library:
-
- Type "make" to build libgmp.a and libmp.a. The former is the main
- GNU MP library. The latter is the Berkeley MP compatible library.
-
- If you don't have GCC, type "make CC=cc". The compilation should, at
- least with GCC, proceed without any kind of warnings from the compiler
- programs. On the DEC Alpha, you have to use GCC because of bugs in DEC's
- own compiler. GCC 2.3.3 for x86, Alpha, and HP-PA has bugs that make
- several functions be mis-optimized. Later version of GCC does not have
- this problem.
-
- To build and run the tests, do "make check".
-
-The documentation is an a texinfo file, gmp.texi.
-
-To create the documentation from the texinfo source, type "make doc".
-This requires the "tex" and "makeinfo" commands to be available in
-your search path. If you have only one of them, you can create the
-dvi file (for the paper manual) with "make gmp.dvi", and the info file
-(for the GNU online manual facility) with "make gmp.info".
-
-You need version 2.06 or later of texinfo in order to build the
-documentation.
