The file isn't in /usr/local/lib/gap4r4/pkg/carat/carat-2.0/lib.
I've reproduced this on my system. I really don't think this is a 'gmp' issue, and I would not (yet) start fooling around with fink or MacPorts. The problem seems more basic: the fact that "- lcrt0.o" is the issue means (to me, at least) that the tool chain is really confused. In the future, please include this information, since it will help diagnose this kind of problem:
 - hardware platform (processor, if known)
 - OS
 - OS version
 - GAP version and (if it's about a package) package version
I am running on a Mac Pro (Dual Quad Xeon, 3GHz), Mac OS X 10.4.11.
I tried this with Gap 4.4.10, and nq 2.2.
I find that my locally-built GMP is built as a 64-bit library, while nq is built 32-bit. I think that is the problem (GMP seems to insist on 64-bit builds if it's possible). Let us know what the above information is, and whether you built GMP yourself (and if not, where it came from).


Hardware: Apple iBook G3 900 MHz

This pretty much eliminates the "64-bit" answer :-}

OS and Version: Mac OS X 10.4.11
GAP: 4.4.9
NQ Version: 2.2

GMP Version (Long Edition): OK, here's where it gets embarassing.

No need to be too embarrassed; many of us have been in the same boat at times :-}

GMP Version (Short Edition): 4.2.2

I have not tried recomiling NQ since installing GMP.

I would do that (I rebuilt GMP on my system, forcing it to 32 bits, and the 'nq' build completed).

If that doesn't work, post the results of

 file $XXX/libgmp*
 ar x $XXX/libgmp.a fscanf.o
 file fscanf.o
 rm fscanf.o

(XXX = path to the libraries).

Hope that helps.

Justin
