In the meantime, the error described in the separate BZ / LP
(Bug 203320 - LP#2029438 : [Reverse Mirror] gmp z13 config fails with illegal instructions)
has been fixed (thanks @Stefan)
Therefore, the z13 optimizations should now be re-included.

Title:
[23.10 FEAT] libgmp SIMD optimizations
Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems:
Fix Released
Status in gmp package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Optimize the GNU MP Bignum Library using vector instructions.
- Requirement for Full Homomorphic Encryption, libgmp is used as a backend for NTL
- libgmp performance is critical also for GNU Cobol on Z.
Here a customer requested using packed decimal instructions in libgmp which does not appear to fit for libgmp - however SIMD would help on distros with ALS z13
