Failed 1/1 test scripts, 0.00% okay. 4/349 subtests failed, 98.85% okay.
To me it seems that the tests are desinged for 32-bit systems and the accuracy of 64-bit systems is too high, thus the expected and got results do not match. The library functions correctly at least when I need it. I'm using MAth::GMP as a part of Net::SFTP.
