Hi

Multi threaded support did not make into this release :( , the next release 
mpir-1.4 will have it. I think the next release will be a fairly quick one , 
concentrating on cleaning up what code we do have , but have not fully 
utilised. I know I wont have the time to write much new stuff , and there is 
plenty to do and finish off.

1) get the root code to use mulhigh and the new inversion
2) write trial division to use the new mpn_mod fns
3) expand mod_1 fn to include full limbs
4) clean up the mess of the new division functions eg divhensel runs at 7.5 
but divexact runs at 10c/l
5) 5 or 6 new linear mpn asm functions to finish off
6) new faster mpz_likely_prime to actually use the tricks planned.
7) upgrade to the latest autotools+gnulib
8) if I'm feeling brave ;) , rearrange mpn dirs selection method (compatible 
with future windows build)
