It also contains the tool mpcheck for easier comparison with computations by the C library on standard precision floating-point numbers. The library requires the presence of the recently released version 4.1.0 of GNU MPFR, and it is recommended to compile both with the most recent version 6.2.0 of GMP. We thank Jeffrey Walton, Dennis Clarke, Dagobert Michelsen and Rob "sisyphus" for extensive testing of the release candidate. Enjoy, Paul Zimmermann and Andreas Enge
