So is the issue really a matter of making sure that gmp is built
properly then?
... which according to the libgmp home page http://www.swox.com/gmp/ can
often be a nightmare.
We only use one function from that library, namely a routine to convert
a number to base 30. It occured to me that this is a reasonably
straightforward algorithm. So could we not implement our own, and then
drop the dependence on libgmp ?
Or am I being naive?
