Hello Wayne,

Another option for GMP to build a generic library is to use --build during 
configure. Distros will build GMP for a generic AMD64 or i386 build. Review 
this page for targets:
https://gmplib.org/manual/Build-Options.html

You can view what distros excite when configuring their GMP for amd64 and i386 
build.

I used to build GMP all the time for pentium3 with a 64bit virtual machine and 
always specified the native build as pentium3, otherwise GMP configure would 
detect the host CPU and build natively for that.

So, instead of copying the FSF files for config sub and guess, specify the cpu 
target:

--build=i686-unknown-linux-gnu
--build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

It is also good to view the output configure provides for ABI and other 
information before building.

When building GMP in tree with GCC, as in chapter5, it should build a generic 
target. You can verify that by looking at the config.log in the gmp directory 
of gcc-build after configuring GCC.

Sincerely,
William

You mean like this in the log? :

## --------- ##
## Platform. ##
## --------- ##

hostname = lfs-computer
uname -m = x86_64
uname -r = 3.19.0
uname -s = Linux
uname -v = #2 SMP Tue Sep 15 18:44:11 EDT 2015
