It would probably be *essential* that these get added if GAP is to ever run in library mode. I doubt that one can have both an MPIR and a GMP library linked into the same executable and the rest of sage is married to MPIR by now (ecl runs fine with MPIR, by the way, but some changes to ecl were necessary to make it more tolerant to work with a library that has been initialized by another process already. Since it's in ecl's mission statement that it wants to play nice in embedded situations, this was a reasonable change. Perhaps less so for GAP, but if they're actively working on this presently, perhaps they can be convinced to keep this use case in mind. -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
