Ok.

GMP 5.0.1
Hmmm, we have to upgrade ECM ''because of'' the upgrade of MPIR / GMP:
'''''Changes between ecm-6.2.3 and ecm-6.3:'''''
* ''New assembly code for 64-bit PowerPC (thanks to Philip
!McLaughlin)''
* ''Allow several processes to write to the same -save file''
* ''More routines in new P+-1 stage 2 use multi-threading in OpenMP
build''
* '''''Fixed incompatibility with GMP 5.0.0'''''
* ''Fixed several bugs, and now check return value from malloc()
calls''
* ''Fixed linking of GMP which prevented successful builds under Darwin
(and presumably other systems)''
* ''Allow use of x86_64 asm code under MinGW''
