Support the MP library on recent FreeBSD, have it pass relevant tests.
src/ChangeLog addition:
2011-11-26 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net>
* number-mp.c (bignum_to_string):
Don't overwrite the accumulator we've just set up for this
function.
* number-mp.c (BIGNUM_TO_TYPE):
mp_itom() doesn't necessarily do what this code used to think with
negative numbers, it can treat them as unsigned ints. Subtract
numbers from bignum_zero instead of multiplying them by -1 to
convert them to their negative equivalents.
* number-mp.c (bignum_to_int):
* number-mp.c (bignum_to_uint):
* number-mp.c (bignum_to_long):
* number-mp.c (bignum_to_ulong):
* number-mp.c (bignum_to_double):
Use the changed BIGNUM_TO_TYPE() in these functions.
* number-mp.c (bignum_ceil):
* number-mp.c (bignum_floor):
In these functions, be more careful about rounding to positive and
negative infinity, respectively. Don't use the sign of QUOTIENT
when working out out whether to add or subtract one, rather use
the sign QUOTIENT would have if arbitrary-precision division were
done.
* number-mp.h:
* number-mp.h (MP_GCD):
Wrap #include <mp.h> in BEGIN_C_DECLS/END_C_DECLS.
* number.c (Fbigfloat_get_precision):
* number.c (Fbigfloat_set_precision):
Don't attempt to call XBIGFLOAT_GET_PREC if this build doesn't
support big floats.

See the GNU General Public License for more details. You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with XEmacs. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. This directory contains a number of XEmacs dynamic modules. These modules can be loaded directly with the command 'M-x load-module'. However, the preferred method of loading a module is to issue a "(require 'module-name)" command to the Lisp interpreter. This will store information so that a later "(unload-feature 'module-name)" can succeed. To compile one of these modules, simply enter the desired directory, type 'configure', and then 'make'. If you are building the module for an installed XEmacs, then 'make install' will place the module in the appropriate directory for XEmacs to find it later (assuming you have permission to write to that directory). A subsequent 'load-module' or 'require' will then load the module, as described above. Each of these demonstrates different features and limitations of the XEmacs module loading technology. For a complete discussion on XEmacs dynamic modules, please consult the XEmacs Module Writers Guide, which can be found in the ../info directory. For those wanting to get started with module writing, please see the 'sample' directory. It contains two subdirectories: internal and external. The 'internal' subdirectory contains the framework needed to migrate some core piece of XEmacs functionality into code that can either be compiled into the core or built as a separate module. The 'external' subdirectory contains the somewhat simpler framework needed to build a module separately from XEmacs. These should be considered starting places for module writing.
