Which version of GMP you compiled as 64bit, and which MingW
distribuition you use? Mine defaults to 64, but when building gmp it
builds only 32 bit version, and fail when I try to set ABI=64 or -m64.
I cnn't check which mingw64 distribution I was using right now, but
think it was the one fro tdragon (or something).
