</div>As far I know, there is an "in-tree" GMP packaged as a tarball under<br>
the ghc/libraries/integer-gmp/tarball directory. GNU/Linux can pick<br>
up the gmp headers and libraries because they are some expected<br>
location (perhaps in /usr/include and /usr/lib), while FreeBSD cannot,<br>
because GMP is installed as a third-party software and resides under<br>
some prefix, which is usually /usr/local/{include,lib} so it would<br>
fall back to the in-tree version.<br>
<br>
The solution is use the --with-gmp-includes and --with-gmp-libraries<br>
flags for the "configure" script. The x86 FreeBSD builder fails<br>
because these flags are not specified and it cannot pick up the<br>
in-tree GMP any more (I have mentioned Ian this problem, but probably<br>
he did not have time to fix this up), while the x86_64 FreeBSD builder<br>
works because it picks up the system GMP due to these flags.<br>
<br>
Actually, the x86_64 FreeBSD builder were also able to pick up the<br>
in-tree GMP, but unfortunately it causes some linking error if I<br>
recall this correctly (c.f. #4022).<br>
