x86_64 as expected.

No, it doesn't, though /usr/lib/libmpfr.la does.

Nothing was found in any of the removed_ directories because I
haven't uninstalled any libraries.

Once I had enough software installed to make the package management
system work, I used it exclusively. But I clearly don't have libgmp
installed. This was very much an educational project and my policy was
to install only:
a) programs I knew I wanted
b) libraries, etc. that installed programs wouldn't work without.

There wasn't one. I was working as the lfs user, strictly by the book,
and checked my environment periodically to ensure that it didn't include
anything but the specified variables.
In the book it says that these libraries "may not be included in your
host distribution", so why did it make a difference in my case?
