Compiling and building vital libraries.

Me Myself and I <[email protected]>
Newsgroups gmane.comp.gnu.mingw.user,gmane.comp.gcc.help,gmane.comp.gcc.java.devel
Message-ID <[email protected]> 
I have been referred to http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmpmingw/
for a mingw32 binary version of GMP.

I have the following in my etc/profile file:

export PATH="/home/User/nano":$PATH;
export PATH="/home/User/":$PATH;
export PATH="/home/User/gmp-5.0.2":$PATH;

I need to get the following working:

GMP
MPFR
MPC

I am finding now that 

"C preprocessor /lib/cpp  is failing a sanity check." when I attempt to compile MPFR, with the aforementioned binary GMP.

Are there any mingw32 people who know what I need to do to my /lib/cpp to get it behaving better?

Ciao.

I've just built GMP 5.0.4 under MinGW without any problems. I'm using GCC 4.5.2. I can upload the libraries onto SourceForge if required. FYI, you can find GMP 5.0.2 for MinGW here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmpmingw/

Cheers.

Sergio.
