I can confirm that various programs which implement GMP do so partially
and idiosyncratically.  When two such programs play each other, they may
or may not be able to use GMP successfully.  If not, it is unclear which
one is to blame.

A robust and generally used GMP implementation would be a boon for
tournament organisers.
