I didn't remove it at the time because there are two reverse build-deps.  I've 
since been in contact with maintainers of both and they have agreed to remove 
the packages that were using lib32gmp.  So I will then remove lib32gmp.

Bad news on that front: since there were no r-build-deps, I already removed 
lib64gmp.  :-O

I don't really track the various ports, so I'm not sure what you mean by 
"proper".  Does http://wiki.debian.org/PPC64 not work for you?
