Comment:

 I just decided to look into http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7471
 and try to actually fix our patches.  However, we don't patch mpir at all
 -- we just include plain vanilla upstream sources.  The mpir spkg was got
 by just taking the mpir tar ball from the mpir website, and extracting it
 into the src/ subdirectory.  So the discrepancy above must be because of
 getting a prerelease version of the tarball.

 Anyway, I just want to point out that it wasn't a problem with just
 forgetting to update some patches (as I suggested), since we have no
 patches.  We used to have tons with GMP, which is why I so quickly thought
 we had them still with MPIR.
