Then set the GCC build system up to link libgmp.a statically.

I'm not going to express an opinion as to whether -rpath options are 
sensible or not beyond noting that a system that requires all libraries to 
be installed in /usr/lib isn't a good idea either.  Other than /usr/lib, 
NetBSD systems only search for libraries in the places given by RPATH 
entries in the image, or in LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the environment.
