@item @file{version.c} compilation

The current @samp{./configure} relies on certain features of @command{sed}

that some old systems don't have. One symptom is @code{VERSION} not being set

correctly in the generated @file{config.h}, leading to @file{version.c}

failing to compile. Irix 5.3, MIPS RISC/OS and Ultrix 4.4 are believed to be

affected. GNU @command{sed} is recommended, though it might be possible to

build by editing @file{config.h} manually instead.

@item VAX running Ultrix

You need to build and install the GNU assembler before you compile GMP. The VAX

routines are not reentrant, since they rely on global state.

(However the newer random number functions that accept a

@code{gmp_randstate_t} parameter are reentrant.)

@item

If @code{alloca} is not available, or GMP is configured with

@samp{--disable-alloca}, the library is not reentrant, due to the current

implementation of @file{stack-alloc.c}. In the generated @file{config.h},

@code{USE_STACK_ALLOC} set to 1 will mean not reentrant.
