When trying to build from hand with "make check -j 4", I got the following: make[4]: *** No rule to make target '../libgmp.la', needed by 't-bswap'. Stop. make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Apparently, the checks were started before the library was compiled. Well, that is not what we do. But it raises suspicions whether a parallel build works. Then I tried "make -j 4", which completed, followed by "make -j 4 check". One of the tests fails: FAIL: reuse See tests/mpz/test-suite.log The test passes using "make check". So I suggest to disable parallel checks for gmp and will (try to) commit a corresponding patch. Andreas
