In this case I marked the port broken so fast because after a summary
investigation it was obvious the fix wasn't fast to produce, as a help
(warning) to the users of the port taht they should not attempt to
upgrade their installed and working gmp and ghc.

It seems I haven't been fast enough for you :(

As a workaround, try building the old gmp libs by hand and place them
in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg
