mpirbench will definitely be released as part of or very shortly after
mpir-1.0.0 (due out on Monday I believe), but as a separate package on
the website. It should "just work TM".

Roughly speaking here is what you have to do to get it going atm:

1) download the mpirbench-0.1.tar.gz from the files section of this
list (the one I uploaded - I'm not competing with the other three
versions there, they'll all be merged for the final release - and the
instructions will change again).

2) untar it

3) Edit library and include paths sent to gcc in the runbench script
to point to your mpir.h and libmpir (it's linked statically with mpir,
so no need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH - though on Darwin this is not
possible).

4) compile qexpr.c with gcc to an executable qexpr and set your PATH
to include the location of the executable

5) type ./runbench

Bill.
