And personally I think it would by now be reasonable to require MPFR 3.0 or 3.1 as a minimum version should someone wish to make the various cleanups mentioned in the April discussion, so avoiding claiming to support configurations few developers will be testing. (MPFR 3.1 came out nearly five years ago - 3 Oct 2011.) -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
