Dear all, While trying to upgrade MPIR in Sage, we got problems building Linbox on top of MPIR > 2.5.x, including MPIR 2.6.0. You can see the discussion at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/13137
The problem seems to be with the C++ version of mpz_get_[s|u]x which now get defined in gmpxx.h depending on the previous inclusion of stdint.h, which Linbox seems to include, and which makes the intmax_t et al. types available if I understand correctly. These C++ functions just call their C counterparts which are prototyped (and used to be in 2.4.x as well) in mpir.h, depending on the same condition. But somehow gcc complains that mpz_get_[s|u]x do not exist... So now I'm confused on what goes wrong here. And if I prevent the C++ member functions to be defined in gmpxx.h, the problem disappears. In particular, Linbox does not use them, which provides a dirty workaround for the time being.
