In general, that's to be expected. There are plenty of optional
machine dependent functions.

That seems like a genuine bug. I can reproduce it with

  ~/hack/gmp/configure ABI=32 --disable-assembly

on a GNU/linux x86_64 system as well. Make check gets link errors,

  libtool: link: gcc -std=gnu99 -m32 -O2 -pedantic -fomit-frame-pointer -mtune=corei7 -march=corei7 -DNO_ASM -o .libs/t-bswap t-bswap.o ./.libs/libtests.a /home/nisse/build/gmp-32-noasm/.libs/libgmp.so ../.libs/libgmp.so
