Help with building; fails because of "undefined reference to `__gmpz_inits'"

Hello,

I was trying to build coreutils using the latest version on master branch.
I followed README-hacking and everything went fine with the ./bootstrap
step. ./configure also worked fine. But make failed with these errors:

  src/factor.o: In function `mp_prime_p':
  /home/kmodi/downloads/git/coreutils/src/factor.c:1395: undefined
reference to `__gmpz_inits'
  /home/kmodi/downloads/git/coreutils/src/factor.c:1459: undefined

  src/factor.o: In function `mp_factor_using_pollard_rho':

  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  make[2]: *** [Makefile:7944: src/factor] Error 1

  make[1]: *** [Makefile:11705: all-recursive] Error 1
  make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/kmodi/downloads/git/coreutils'
  make: *** [Makefile:5966: all] Error 2

So I tried building from the tarball of the latest stable release v8.27.
That too failed with the same error.

I have 0 knowledge with C programming. But I know how to build software
locally on my machine. Here is the full config.log:

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.
