I'm confused. If the bootstrapping GHC uses a gmp from a non-standard directory, then that directory should be listed in the "library-dirs" field of the rts package.
Running "strings" on the bootstrap compiler's lib/ghc-6.8.3/libHSrts* shows some references to the gmp include directory, but none to the library directory. I can try rebuilding 6.8.3, keeping the build directory for inspection afterwards to see what's happening there. paul
