I tried both building libgmp as a shared library (which didn't solve the problem) and reverting to libgmp 4.1.4 (which did).

Thanks for the feedback.

Did you try forcing Math::GMP to link directly to the shared library (rather than linking to the import library) ? I gave that a fair chance of working ... on a hunch, more than anything else :-)

Mind you, whilst I know that gcc can link directly to shared libraries on Win32 and Linux, I have no such knowledge regarding gcc on Macs. And, of course I've got no right to press you like this for details ... so please feel free to ignore.

Cheers,
Rob
