Hmm, yes that looks a bit doubtful, I guess there's supposed to be an
argument after that -Wl,-rpath (either another -Wl or a -Wl,-rpath,xyz
style).

I don't get that using gcc 3.2 with the native ld on solaris 2.8 (or I
think it's using the native ld).  For me it's just

        gcc -shared -Wl,-h -Wl,libgmp.so.3 -o .libs/libgmp.so.3.3.0 \
          .libs/assert.o ... -lc

Do you have LD_LIBRARY_PATH or LD_RUN_PATH or something set?

If you want to investigate you might be able to run libtool with a sh
-x to see what it thinks, on just one object file for brevity,

        sh -x ./libtool --mode=link gcc -o libgmp.la -rpath /usr/local/lib
          -version-info 6:1:3 assert.lo
