  Truing to build a 32-bit version of gmp using GCC 4.4.0, configure fails with the following
  
  System:
  
  uname -m = x86_64
  uname -r = 2.6.9-67.ELxenU
  uname -s = Linux
  uname -v = #1 SMP Wed Nov 7 14:17:17 EST 2007
  
  /usr/bin/uname -p = unknown
  /bin/uname -X     = unknown
  
  /bin/arch              = x86_64
  
  Configure command:

  Test compile:

  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Well, if the compiler cannot find its internal libraries, then GMP
cannot do much.
