Could you say which version is not working?

What exactly do you mean:

1) You can not compile gmp?  There are intructions on the net how
   to do this (I do not know how good they are).
2) You have gmp but you can not get FriCAS to use it?  There is
   --enable-gmp flag to configure to use gmp.  If that fails please
   capture output of configure.  Also, note that currently
   'Undefined alien' messages appear also when gmp is in use.
