These libraries seem to be rather system-independent, at least in the unix world. I would not be surprised if they built out-of-the box in NetBSD as well -- Sage, for instance, relies on it for all platforms it supports. Note that I do not intend to change the interface. ECL would continue to build with GMP, and for platforms that make it easy to pull in arbitrary software (Linux *BSD, etc) this is the recommended option. However, elsewhere we need a library that can be packed together with ECL and which does not have license problems -- GMP switched to a more restrictive license and this means I cannot upgrade ECL to use newer versions.
