Comment:
To clarify: gmp is not "downloaded and built ''as part of'' the texlive
MacPorts installation" (emphasis mine), at least I hope it isn't; if it
is, that would be a bug. In fact, gmp is listed as a dependency of the
texlive-bin port, therefore MacPorts will install the gmp port ''before''
building the texlive-bin port and when the texlive-bin port is built it
should use the gmp that was already installed (not build its own separate
copy).
You're right that ideally texlive-bin would find MacPorts gmp instead of
the one you had in /usr/local. However, builds inadvertently finding
things in /usr/local is such a common problem that we strongly recommend
you not install anything in /usr/local; see wiki:FAQ#usrlocal.
Duplicate of #66146.
