some comments:

   5. The build fails, so I edited the file src/kernel/none/mp_indep.c in
   a somewhat random way to get it to compile.  More precisely, I
   commented out lines 794-801, and replaced them by:

The issue is that Configure cannot guess the double format when cross-compiling
so PARI_DOUBLE_FORMAT is not defined correctly.

It would be useful to know which exact level of ARM ABI is supported by the
IPAD to write an inline assembly kernel for ipad.

Cheers,
Bill.
