    Assuming you must use gmp 4.3.2 and that you are on MacOS X with
  an llvm based compiler, try the attached patch to configure. The problem with
  older gmp (this issue is fixed in current gmp 5.0.5) on darwin, is that the
  configure test for checking how to switch to read-only data section was
  incorrectly constructed for llvm-based compilers. Since this issue has been fixed
  there are no real issues with gmp on darwin (despite the grumbling from the
  developer).

Let us please close this thread.  The original reporter refuses to tell
us anything about his platform.  We are wasting our time and we create
mailing list noise.

Let us use our time helping users that help us help them...
