Problem R-4.0 beta and Rmpfr (pre-release)

Berend,

I have compiled gmp on an older machine (2008 MacPro) - in fact the same that we used until 4.0.0. Apparently there are some new instruction on more recent CPUs that gmp leverages if it finds them. Oddly, I could not find any good info on this so it's hard to pin-point the difference or exact CPUs that cause this. Using the old one should make it fairly safe.

Cheers,
Simon
