But doesn't that mean ghc didn't actually work until you did install
gmp?

Right and my point is that can't we achieve that by testing if ghc can
compile and link a hello world program? If gmp is missing then the
linking phase would fail.

Is there any need to check for gmp specifically and separately from
checking that ghc works?
