Thank you - that worked!

You can create the link somewhere else, and use LD_LIBRARY_PATH
I have done this before.  If your version of libgmp is compatible, it should 
work.

What does the --with-gmp-libraries option do? I've tried using it with a
local shortcut, but it didn't help.

Linux ld.so doesn't work that way.

Actually, the unversioned .so is often in a -dev package.

It's not symlinked on the systems that I'm working with (mostly CentOS and
Red Hat - I'm not disputing that it might work on "most" systems). I also
need to install GHC on systems where I don't have root access, so I can't
create the link.

Could GHC be configured to look for libgmp.so.3, or whatever version it was
actually linked against, if it can't find libgmp.so?

Most systems symlink libgmp.so to the default version installed.  On Debian 
stable it's libgmp.so.10 ... so it may work for you, but you may want to 
upgrade.
