you are missing gcc's 32-bit dependencies Yes - and I'm not really interested in building such a perl if I need additional downloads to do it. I've implemented USE_QUADMATH capability on Windows. There's nothing public yet, but I should be in a position to submit a PR in the next couple of days. I've been testing all of the various nvtype/ivtype permutations with 32-bit and 64-bit compilers, and they're all fine .... except for one. On Windows, with a 32-bit gcc, I can build blead with ivsize=4 and nvtype=__float128 - and it's failing a few Math::BigInt/BigFloat tests. There's no problem with any of the other available nvtype/ivtype permutations - it's just this one (very rare) configuration that's being a bit of a nuisance. I suspect it's a Math::BigInt/BigFloat bug, but it could also be a bug in my amendments to the perl source. For reference, it would be nice to see how a __float128 build with an ivsize of 4, fares on Ubuntu. The 2 systems I have that do permit the -m32 switch don't provide libquadmath. Cheers, Rob
