Hi,

This problem concerns gmp version 4.2.1.

Two (independent) attempts to install gmp on an itanium2 processor 
running unix, failed.

 From the install directory for gmp version 4.2.1 I did \some standard 
stuff:

./configure prefix=the install directory
make

The error occurred during the make.  There seemed to be a problem with 
access in
mpn/m4-ccas, that's why ssubsequently we tried chmod. But the error 
persisted
(see below) .

 > ls -l mpn/m4-ccas
-rw-r--r--  1 pxn110 j77  2486 Mar 15  2006 m4-ccas
 > chmod +x mpn/m4-ccas
 > make
make  all-recursive
....
Making all in mpn

Which is where I got to in building gmp.

Cheers (and good luck!),
