Generally one reads the error messages. Often, and this is one of those cases, 
the first error message tells what the problem might be. You either do not have 
the system package GMP or it is installed in a location where the R package 
'gmp' cannot find it.

I had difficulties attempting to test the advice I found by (re-)installing the 
GNU GMP package from CRAN/r.research.att.com:

http://r.research.att.com/libs/gmp-6.0.0-darwin.13-x86_64.tar.gz

I got:
~ davidwinsemius$ sudo tar fvxz ~/gmp-6.0.0-darwin.13-x86_64.tar.gz -C /
x usr/: Can't set user=0/group=0 for usrCan't update time for usr

x usr/local/lib/

x usr/local/lib/libgmp.a
x usr/local/lib/libgmp.la
x usr/local/include/gmp.h
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

Search on the "Can't update time for usr"-error brought up a bunch of stuff 
about 'XSAN' that I didn't really understand fully but did not seem terribly 
relevant ...

 .... but the package 'gmp-6.1.2.tar.bz2' at gmplib.org expanded and compiled 
without difficulty usign the switches recommended at the bottom of:

http://r.research.att.com/libs/

davidwinsemius$ sudo tar fvxz /Users/davidwinsemius/Downloads/gmp-6.1.2.tar.bz2 
-C /

(I'm not on Sierra, since Apple has classified my MacPro as "obsolete".)
