  There is probably a bug in
  
  gmp-3.0
        
  The following program allocates more and more memory. It would crash 
eventually if the loop was infinite (size of t not infinite).
  
   for( i = 1; i < 2000000000 ; i++ )
   {
      mpz_set_ui( t, 2000000000 - i );
      mpz_probab_prime_p( t ,3 );
   }
  
This bug was fixed in GMP 3.0.1, released a few days after 3.0.
Please upgrade to that verson, or to the newer GMP 3.1.
