New description:

 The recent MPIR versions can only be built shared OR static on Cygwin, not
 both.
 Moreover, MPIR configure scripts gets confused if Cygwin, which is only 32
 bits, is ran on a 64 bits Windows.

 Hence the following spkg sets ABI=32 (to tackle the second problem) and
 only builds a shared version of the library (to tackle the first one).

 Updated spkg based on this one at #13137.
 Please use the one there.
