New description:

 MPIR fails to build on '''32-bit''' operating systems running on
 '''64-bit''' processors if `CFLAGS` contain `-m32` and `ABI` is '''not'''
 set.

 The simple solution is to set `ABI=32` in this case, which the new spkg
 now does (on Linux, where the issue occurred). It also sets `ABI=64` if
 the operating system supports it, and `ABI` isn't already set, and prints
 according messages.
