Great!  On the dynamic gmp front, though, the stanza

gmpfiles: $(shell find ../$(GMPDIR) -name "*.o" |grep -v '\.lib')
        rm -rf gmp
        mkdir gmp
        a="$^" ; \
        for i in $^ ; do \
                cp $$i gmp/$$(echo $$i | sed -e 's,\.\./,,1' -e 's,/,_,g') ; \
        done
        touch $@

should now produce and empty gmp subdirectory as we are no longer
patching/compiling any local gmp symbols when not disalbing dynsysgmp
(unlike before even with dynsysgmp).  You might want to check that $^
is empty here, say by

foo: $(shell find ../$(GMPDIR) -name "*.o" |grep -v '\.lib')
        echo $^

and make foo in unixport.  You must be having some stray .o file in
gmp3 which does not survive the sed modification well.

Take care,
