Julia buid error on OS X 10.8.4

[argoneus]

I'm building using brew install --HEAD --64-bit -v julia

Here's the error output:

Can you post the output of brew doctor and brew --config please? This works fine for me with the latest everything. Can you also post the output of the following: (I've included my own output with the commands for comparison)

I have pushed a (possible) fix. Please brew update and try again, and upload any logs if it still fails.

Here's the error output with the latest update:

Aha, you need gmp as well. A new fix has been pushed, Rinse, lather, repeat.

[argoneus]

That did it! Thanks!

[staticfloat]

Glad we got it working!
