Hello,

while the vanilla gmp cannot produce a static version of the gmp on
MacIntel there is a patch by Alex Martelli which can be found (among
several places) at

http://fsmath.mathematik.uni-dortmund.de/~mabshoff/patches/gmp-4.2.1-static-IntelMac.patch

Please make sure that you run 'make check' because not all gccs released
by Apple produce a properly working library (to put it mildly)

Cheers,

Michael
