Well, MPFR 2.3.0 is the new recommended version, but it should still be
buildable with 2.2.1:
+ dnl MPFR 2.2.1 is acceptable, but MPFR 2.3.0 is better.
+ #if MPFR_VERSION < MPFR_VERSION_NUM(2,2,1)
choke me
Thus it really should work with 2.2.1, though MPFR 2.3.0 is nicer as it
supports, e.g., GAMMA and LOG_GAMMA simplification.

The patch itself should work on PPC; at least Dominique reported no
problems and John wrote in the PR: "Tested second version posted and it
fixes the fail on hppa-unknown-linux-gnu."
