@ -67,7 +67,11 @@ GMP, and so does Guile. Since Guile 2.0.4, Guile has installed libgc as
the GMP allocator, so since then, Guile-GnuTLS has been buggy.
Therefore, the default is now to not install libgc as the GMP allocator.
This may slow down some uses of bignums.
This may slow down some uses of bignums. If you know that your Guile
program will never use a library that uses GMP, you can set the
GUILE_INSTALL_GMP_MEMORY_FUNCTIONS=1 in your environment. Guile sets
this environment variable when building Guile, for example. See
"Environment Variables" in the manual, for more.
In some future, Guile may switch to GMP's more low-level "MPN" API for
working with bignums, which would allow us to regain the ability to use
