If you mean to figure out how to build an up-to-date GCC from FSF,  
that is asking a lot :-}.  Do you want me to try to build on Mac OS X  
with a non-Apple GCC?  I don't even know that that will work.

I just tried a home-built GP 2.3.0, and it does not exhibit the  
problem.  One big difference between the SAGE-built GP and the home- 
built version is the use of GMP: SAGE uses GMP 4.2; my version uses  
GMP 4.1.4.

I'll explore further.
