They're archtecture dependent, depending mainly on GMP_NUMB_BITS on the

http://gmplib.org:8000/gmp/file/mini-gmp. Or if one is prepared to limit
the support to 32-bit and 64-bit limbs, one could generate tables for
both sizes and include in the tarballs.
Hmm, both solutions do sound pretty sensible - and thanks for the
pointer to mini-gmp. Hooking that up during the cross-builds I
mentioned should possibly be easier than building and installing a
full GMP, even if it isn't included in release tarballs.
I'm about to add mini-gmp now. Should help also for native compilation,
in the case that -lgmp isn't enough for the linker to find a suitable
gmp library.
Great, that sounds promising, and will absolutely help a lot in at least
two setups I know of.
eccdata needs some tedious changes to work with mini-gmp, since it lacks
gmp_f?printf. Those calls have to be replaced by a mix of regular printf
and mpz_out_str.
(Note that mini-gmp is LGPLv3, just like recent GMP, but that shouldn't
matter for nettle users as long as mini-gmp is used only for the eccdata
program).
Yes, this shouldn't be an issue.
