Hi Rob,

after compiling libgmp as a shared library, I removed the static (.a) version, so probably the linker didn't have another choice than to use the shared version. If you think it makes sense, I'll do some more testing on a second system tomorrow - I don't want to touch the first one anymore, being glad to finally have it doing what it's supposed to :-)

I'm not going to ignore this, considering that 1. you helped me out with a working solution and 2. I'm interested in getting a stable module as well, using current rather than outdated library versions. So whatever I can do (not much, probably, not being a C hacker myself), I'll try.

Thanks again and best regards,

  Peter.
