GNU MP

The GNU MP library provides routines for arbitrary precision integer and floating point arithmetic. Version 2.0 of the library is provided to us under the GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, a copy of which is provided to you as part of the Macaulay 2 package in the file licenses/gnulib.lic. Macaulay 2 contains no derivative of GNU MP, and works with it by being linked with it, and hence the Macaulay2 executable is covered by section 6 of the GNU license. Under its terms we must offer you, and do offer you, a relocatable machine-readable version of our object code so that you can relink it with other versions of the GNU MP library. If you let us know within three years that you need it we'll make it available at our public ftp site.
