Ah, June.  That was the month I was moving into a new house and getting
rear-ended.  What fun!

What version of the gmp library are you using?

For what it's worth, I don't get the compiler warnings you listed on
i386 Fedora Core 4, i386 Fedora Core 5, or x86_64 Fedora Core 5.  FC4
and FC5 both shipped with gmp 4.1.4.
