[Android] Builds since 26.09.2015 not usable

Hi!

A couple times a week I install new vlc-android build from [1]. Builds since 26.09.2015 are not usable:

I/VLC/LibVLC/Util(19835): ELF ABI = arm, 32bits
I/VLC/LibVLC/Util(19835): ELF arch = v7
I/VLC/LibVLC/Util(19835): ELF fpu = true
D/StatusBarManagerService( 2825): tr p:19835,o:f
D/dalvikvm(19835): Trying to load lib /data/app-lib/org.videolan.vlc.debug-1/libanw.18.so 0x422621f8
D/dalvikvm(19835): Added shared lib /data/app-lib/org.videolan.vlc.debug-1/libanw.18.so 0x422621f8
D/dalvikvm(19835): No JNI_OnLoad found in /data/app-lib/org.videolan.vlc.debug-1/libanw.18.so 0x422621f8, skipping init
D/dalvikvm(19835): Trying to load lib /data/app-lib/org.videolan.vlc.debug-1/libvlcjni.so 0x422621f8
W/linker  (19835): libvlcjni.so has text relocations. This is wasting memory and is a security risk. Please fix.
E/dalvikvm(19835): dlopen("/data/app-lib/org.videolan.vlc.debug-1/libvlcjni.so") failed: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "__gmp_binvert_limb_table" referenced by "libvlcjni.so"...
E/VLC/LibVLC(19835): Can't load vlcjni library: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "__gmp_binvert_limb_table" referenced by "libvlcjni.so"...
I/AndroidRuntime(19835): VM exiting with result code 1, cleanup skipped.
I/ActivityManager( 2825): Process org.videolan.vlc.debug (pid 19835) (adj 0) has died.

I believe this is due to the git commit "libvlc.so: export only the libvlc symbols" [2].

Andrey

P.S. On the web page [3] it is stated "To post a message to all the list members, send email to android at videolan.org". I sent this e-mail on 28. September but since then I couldn't see it in the archive [4]. Thus I had to subscribe to the mailing list and I'm trying it again. Please update the policy, how to quickly communicate to the list. By the way do you look sometimes into the forum? I've answered really occasionally a question [5], because I had the same and found the answer myself. Feel free to approve or to reject my version. Oh, just noticed, that the moderator has just sent an answer there.
