I think it's a stack size problem.  If you set "limit stacksize 512M" in your
shell, then it works.  Default  is 8MB on linux, and I think I remember seeing
in the GMP doc that it sometimes stores temporaries on the stack.

BTW, to stop overcommitting memory on Linux, you can do
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory
or something like that...
