Comment(by zimmerma):

 > It sets some CFLAGS and others itself, is it needed?

 as a developer of MPFR I strongly recommend to let MPFR choose the same CC
 and CFLAGS as GMP
 (they are read in gmp.h). Since we do this for MPFR, this greatly improved
 the portability of
 MPFR on different platforms with different compilers, in particuler it
 solves the ABI=32 vs ABI=64
 issues.

 > Is the patch for Solaris stuff still needed?

 I guess yes, since this was a bug in the Solaris kernel.
