Thanks for running the cppcheck tool on CLN. But in this case, the report
is a false positive: The only uses of the type gcd_result are in the same
file, function cantor_zassenhaus_sqrt, and you can see in lines 154, 161,
168, that the 'gcd_degree' member is only used when the 'condition' member
is NULL, and furthermore from function gcd you can see that when said
constructor is used the 'condition' member is assigned a non-NULL value.
So, the program is correct as is.
