That is: you have composed a standalone C source holding
the code from "config.log" and GCC gave the same error?
If this is the case: we understand that it is a GCC problem
that should be fixed by GCC developers or the GNU
Autoconf developers.

I have no access to our platform, so I cannot test this. Try
asking on a MAC OS list or newsgroup. If you solve the problem
and report here, we will be thankful.

Try also the GMP documentation: they have a very well
written Info file and there should be notes in the GMP
source package.

Some platforms add an underscore to the function name
exported by libraries. Search for "name mangling". Example:

Anyway, is this of interest to you?
