Comment:

 Ok, gmp's configure script, and other files, do literally reference
 /usr/5bin. Apparently it's a System V thing. Not relevant to macOS.

 We have discovered in other tickets (e.g. comment:ticket:69467:6) that
 Apple forgot (?) to include `m4` in the Xcode 15.3 command line tools
 (although they did still include `gm4`), so that's probably what's to
 blame here.

 Since gmp uses m4, it should use the newer MacPorts version of m4. Here's
 a PR to do that: https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/22985
