In the past, it was working on this machine, and no major changes
have been announded in the gmp Debian's NEWS file. So, it should
still work.

On http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=675577 it is said
"My apologies -- it wasn't meant to be an intrusive change, since the
compiler can find it well enough in either location."

Well, the compiler *cannot* find it.
