Help! problem with gmp

Hello:

I am having trouble installing ssh on a
#uname -a
SunOS stage1.thirdage.com 5.5.1 Generic_103640-28 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1

it compiles fine, but when trying to generate a key, it hangs, apparently
on a gmp function, mpz_powm.  The gmp2 source came with the
ssh distribution, so I cd'd to that subdir and built gmp separately.
Gcc version is:

# gcc -v
Reading specs from
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

Building gmp separately from it's source directory:
Make compiled everything fine, but make 'check generated' a number of
errors and core dumped during the mpz tests.  I have attached the
output and errors from 'make check' as make.check.out and the core dump
from the mpz tests as mpz-fore.  

The 3rd attachment is a post to ssh newsgroup, it describes the ssh
problem and gives a pstack from ssh-keygen which shows the 
mpz_powm function.


Our shop has several Sparc Solaris 2.5.1-2.7 machines.  Ssh was compiled
on all of them and works fine on every machine except the one
described above (uname -a).  Gmp also compiles fine and checks out ok on
the rest of those machines.  I have tried coping binaries, libraries and
config files from the working machines to the problem machine to no
avail.  I compared files and configurations between the problem machine
and the working machines and could not find any differences, or any reason
this problem happens only on one machine.  


Any help greately appreciated.  I will be happy to provide any additional
information you need, just let me know.


Thanks in advance,
Mike
