Does this produce a broken version of MPIR or does it stop MPIR from
building?

GCC 4.3.2 on Debian 5.0 produces a broken build of MPIR. At least MPIR
2.1.0 builds on that system with that version of GCC, but the MPIR
checks fail.

If it does compile, perhaps you can give us an example of what
generates an error. If that could be used as a doc test in Sage, we
would have a test for the problem.

Perhaps the following wiki page might help:

http://wiki.sagemath.org/mpir/BuildFarm/mpir-2.1.0


FWIW, I just downloaded mpir-2.1.1-rc1.tar.gz and that builds and passes all tests on my machine. The data can be added if a page is ever created for the later MPIR version.

Sun Ultra 27
Hostname 'redstart'
OpenSolaris 06/2009
Intel Xeon W3580 (quad core 3.33 GHz)

I've tested with both gcc 3.4.3 (included with OpenSolaris) and gcc 4.4.4 (which I bought from source myself). I did a couple of builds with 'make -j 12' and it sill passed all tests, but two runs is not exactly proof a parallel build is safe.
