    v35 v36  
    8686 * [[GhcFile(rts/PrimOps.cmm)]] (''Modify'': remove GMP references; NOTE: optimisation of {{{/* ToDo: this is shockingly inefficient */}}}, see discussion below) 
    8787 * [[GhcFile(rts/StgPrimFloat.c)]] (''Modify'': {{{__encodeDouble}}}, {{{__encodeFloat}}} and {{{decode}}} versions defined here refer to GMP; might optimise with bitwise conversion instead of union; conversion depends on whether replacement MP library uses floating point, etc.) 
    88  * [[GhcFile(rts/Storage.c)]] (''Modify'': {{{stgAllocForGMP}}}, {{{stgReallocForGMP}}} and {{{stgDeallocForGMP}}}; {{{mp_set_memory_functions(...)}}}; functions on lines 811, 833, 835, 848; may use as reference for implementation if replacement MP library uses GHC-garbage collected memory) 
     88 * [[GhcFile(rts/sm/Storage.c)]] (''Modify'': {{{stgAllocForGMP}}}, {{{stgReallocForGMP}}} and {{{stgDeallocForGMP}}}; {{{mp_set_memory_functions(...)}}}; functions on lines 811, 833, 835, 848; may use as reference for implementation if replacement MP library uses GHC-garbage collected memory) 
    8989 * [[GhcFile(rts/gmp/)]] (directory) (''Modify'': recommended to remove entirely, i.e., do not add conditional compilation for users who want to keep on using GMP)
