Oh, yeah, you're right.  I guess that should be ok.  I'm using gcc to
build, but if you want I can try (later) to build with Sun C.

I can't tell if it works though because make stops when trying to build
add_n.asm.  I can't quite easily tell if ecl/config.h is used by gmp or
not.  Probably not.

This is the same problem I was having.  I'll do a little CVS digging
later and let you know if I discover anything.
