  Do I need to do a "make install" before doing a "make check" ?
  
That should not normally be required.

I am at loss explaining why things don't work for you, but one guess is
that your setup somehow causes a different libgmp.so to be found,
instead of the one in ./.libs.

Do you have some environment variable set that causes the linker to
ignore ./.libs/libgmp.so?  Do you even have a libgmp.so somewhere, such
as in a system lib directory?
