What's the command which prints that?

If you installed to a standard location then -lgmp should be enough.
(I don't know what a standard location is on mingw though.)

Once you've done a "make install" you shouldn't need the .libs
subdirectory, only the place gmp was installed to.

Incidentally, it's possible the perl module has never been run on
mingw, it only gets tested on gnu and freebsd systems :).
