David,
     I think I have solved the problem. I thought the use of only
-fno-common in gmp to compile shared libs looked suspect. Sure enough
if I compile gmp 4.2 with...

./configure --enable-cxx CC='gcc -fPIC' CXX='g++ -fPIC'

...the resulting build fully passes make check on the G5. I don't
believe that -fno-common provides PIC code in the same fashion as
-fPIC. Googling those flags show a lot of code using both -fPIC
and -fno-common in the compiles.
             Jack
