I'm wondering what you mean by "version bump".

There's no newer version for the 4.1 branch. So I suggest one of
these 3 possibilities:

1. Apply the patch available on https://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-4.1.1/#bugs

2. Apply the patch from the git commit 0ce17bae34a6c54de31b126f969d3ddd72c6bc37

3. Upgrade to 4.2.0-rc1 (this version is ABI and API compatible and
has the fix for this bug). I will do the release in a few days, as
everything seems fine (there's only a possible failure on m68k with
QEMU, but after investigation, this is due to a QEMU bug, and the
generated code should be correct; BTW, the 4.1.* versions also have
the concerned test).
