Yes. The problem is that a having gmp-3.* _installed_ interferes with
the build against the included gmp-2.*. The trivial (and wrong)
solution would be to CONFLICT with gmp-3.*. Another possibility is to
modify the packages CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS to ensure that the included
gmp is preferred, but this looks non-trivial because of the
--with-ssl-dir argument. (Setting this to /usr/pkg may lead to
/usr/pkg being used in other places, too.)

Perhaps easiest would be to modify the package to build against the
packaged gmp-3.*. I seem to remember that librep required only a
single-line code change to go from gmp-2.* to gmp-3.*.

IMO, this should not hold up the 1.4.3 tag. The bulk-build should
ensure that gmp is not installed at build time, and furthermore, any
successfully created binary package will be unaffected by this.
