I compiled with mpfr-2.4.2, changed the version in
doc/IPCop-1.9.19-all-files-list.i486.txt.md5 to 1.9.17, rebuild with
mpfr-3.0.1-rc1 and used ./make.sh check_files again to see differences
between mpfr-2.4.2 and 3.0.1-rc1
That show mostly no difference except for bash (skipping here the files with
know difference):
DIFF    /bin/sh                                                      bash
DIFF    /etc/ld.so.cache                                             glibc
DIFF    /usr/lib/libmpfr.so                                          mpfr
UPDATE  /bin/bash
So /bin/bash should be the only different file that matter when building
with mpfr-2.4.2 or with 3.0.1-rc1. Hard to know if that matter really.

Anyway, I think I could remove libmpfr from installed files list.
