  does anybody know if the underlying arithmetic algorithms of GMP

  this issue?

I have no idea, and I don't care.  I let people that live under
jurisdictions that recognize software patents worry.

With the patent situation in the US, old stuff that are not
patented today, will surely be patented tomorrow.
