"Some extern functions couldn't be found; some native libraries may need to be installed or have their path specified"

Help with cargo build and Rust bindgen and custom C/C++ library, on Ubuntu Linux. Native libraries are mpfr, gmp, gmpxx. For purposes of this example, external code has been reduced to two functions, add_long(long i, long j) and add_double(double i, double j).

Note, the generated bindings.rs uses link_name with \u{1} whereas on GitHub the extern C code uses link(name="library_name"). Neither option appears to work!
