GHC 7.8.1-rc2 requires /usr/local/lib/libgmp10.10.dylib

It looks like a homebrew (or something else?) dependency snuck into the RC2 build:

% ./configure --prefix=/Users/awick/tools/ghc7.8.0
checking for path to top of build tree... dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgmp.10.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/awick/tools/ghc-7.8.0.20140228/utils/ghc-pwd/dist-install/build/tmp/ghc-pwd
  Reason: image not found
configure: error: cannot determine current directory

As not all of us use homebrew, it'd be lovely if the binary installer only required base Mac libraries to be installed rather than homebrew/macports/whatever.
