Bug ID: 257035
Summary: math/gmp not able to run make check
Product: Ports & Packages
Version: Latest
Hardware: riscv
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: Individual Port(s)

I don't know if the ports in the "math" section should be allowed to run
make check or whatever testsuite is included however it does seem
reasonable given this message :
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
| CAUTION: |
| |
| If you have not already run "make check", then we strongly |
| recommend you do so. |
| |
| GMP has been carefully tested by its authors, but compilers |
| are all too often released with serious bugs. GMP tends to |
| explore interesting corners in compilers and has hit bugs |
| on quite a few occasions. |

I have been building gmp/mpfr/mpc etc for many years on many platforms
and I was always running the testsuite. This seems reasonable and in the
case of some interesting hardware ( RISC-V or big endian SPARC or PPC64
or whatever new thing comes along next year ) the testsuite is prudent.
Just an idea.
