I can't see anything obvious that's wrong. Is the "out_len"
calculated in mpn_get_str in fact sufficient for all the digits
subsequently produced? If "s" is decremented to be before the given
"str" then the loop you found crashing will go into space.
There is a lot of buggy silicon (A and B step) out there.
Also, early GCC versions could not compiler GMP.
