Actually I have the same problem. I need to set

 export LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib

when linking, because I've created the binary-dist with this setting.

Ideally, /opt/local/lib should also be listed under "library-dirs:" for

  ghc-pkg describe rts

Alternatively, you can copy /opt/local/lib/libgmp.a into ghc's libdir
<prefiy>/lib/ghc-6.10.1/, with the additional "benefit" that gmp is
statically linked into your binary (for platforms without
/opt/local/lib/libgmp.dylib)
