Richard,

You, Richard Wackerbarth, were spotted writing this on Mon, Mar 09, 1998 at 08:05:29AM -0600:

Well, I'm sure I didn't, and I got the same mistakes. I built my
tree anew a few weeks ago by starting from 3200xEmpty and applying
all deltas since then. I've never even entered libgmp before ;)

Can you check the same about mpq and mpz? I don't have the deltas
anymore. 

> As others have noted, just applying the deltas in sequence works.

Well, you can't apply them not in sequence (unless perhaps with -F
which I didn't use), and still several people got the same mistake.

Note that I'm by no means accusing you; in fact I appreciate your
work in producing CTM deltas a lot. Thanks! ;)
