This won't work, the GMP package is very special.  The maintainer has
all the work already done, but it was not uploaded yet because we
wanted another review because this package was broken a long time and
it doesn't compile out of the box, I'll try to verify that it works
now and load it up then.  Until then, I have a version online at
my site, this works and was the base of the actual port done by the
maintainer:

To build from source with my patch, be sure to read the README:
