Hi Stavros, Camm.
> Mike, can you confirm/comment on the mingw crashes?
I get no crashes and as the comparison below shows, my results echo Camm's
exactly whether incorrect or not. I assume Camm's were obtained from x86
Linux.
I suppose that at the bottom of all these problems is GMP - the crashes
probably depend on the CPU for which it was built as compared to the CPU on
which it is running or else the version of GMP used.
The current GCL uses a lowest common denominator CPU on x86 platforms and (I
believe) a newer version of GMP compared to GCL 2.3.6 which is probably why
it is not crashing.
The questions which come to my mind are:
Is your GCL self built?
Me: yes - from CVS. I don't have 2.3.6 at hand.
If yes, which gcc compiler are you using?
Me: MinGW32 gcc version 3.2.1
If no, what is the date of your binary build?
What CPU have you got?
Me: P4
What OS?
Me: XP
I suggest you try the new binary build of Windows GCL and see what happens.
Cheers
Mike Thomas.
