[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
Similar updates have been done by other persons on the previous
core-updates branch; closing this bug.
I still think we could enable parallel tests, but it may not be worth
testing this given the high amounts of rebuilds. Maybe next time the
package is updated.
The bootstrapping question is also still open; maybe we can drop the
previous gmp version and its patches.

The attached patch updates gmp to the latest release 6.3.0.
I have tested it on x86_64 and the x86_64-w64-mingw32 cross-compilation
target, since I have taken out a work-around for this target.
There are close to 20000 dependent packages, but as far as I can see
bootstrapping is not concerned, which starts from gmp-6.0.
It would be interesting to try whether we can bootstrap directly from
6.3.0 now, that is, whether the comment

is still valid; it might let us drop the two gmp patches altogether.
