Thanks for the information. I didn't know that.

After looking at the diff, it seems that the change is minimal:

     x86_64:Linux:*:*)
-       if objdump -f /bin/sh | grep -q elf32-x86-64; then
-           echo "$UNAME_MACHINE"-pc-linux-"$LIBC"x32
-       else
-           echo "$UNAME_MACHINE"-pc-linux-"$LIBC"
-       fi
+       echo "$UNAME_MACHINE"-pc-linux-"$LIBC"
        exit ;;

But I might miss something (and I don't use x32 myself).

This probably needs to be discussed and see what other distributions
do.

I got a suggestion to use the more recent upstream versions for the
next MPFR release. So in the mean time, I will stick with Debian's.
