The usual understanding of the LGPL enforces the LGPL license only on the lib-gmp code itself and any modifications you make to it, not on any other parts of the code.
if you follow the LGPL strictly - which I think almost nobody does - you also have to provide a development kit for you application, that users can relink your application with newer versions of the lib-gmp.
Mmm... sort-of. You have to make sure that people can take lib-gmp, change it, and relink your application with it. A reference to a standard build environment should be enough to fulfil that requirement, though it can become a bit more difficult if you have packaging steps after linking.
