  Torbjorn,
  	This was indeed a fresh, clean build.
  
OK, then I am at loss explaining this.

Apple changes every OS version or Xcode version to introduce new quirks
that break builds.  I would need 500 Mac OS test machines of all
possible combinations to keep up,..

If you want GMP to work on your system, then I am afraid that you need
to "port" it, or wait for somebody to port it.  I change that makes it
work on your system but breaks builds on all other systems might give me
some hint, but then I need to figre out for which OS/Xcode combinations
your change is needed, and for which OS/Xcode combinations is breaks
things.
