Yes, GMP ist installed systemwide.

This is a complete virgin build.

I realized that 2.8.12 also do not compile. (Your servers were renewed
recently, so this was a first attempt to build sage on it.)
Meanwhile, I got sage compiled by changing the configure line in spkg-
install of mpfi-1.3.4-rc3.p9 to
./configure --prefix="$SAGE_LOCAL" --with-mpfr-dir="$SAGE_LOCAL"
CFLAGS="-fPIC"
