Install yum-utils,
yum install yum-utils
then do
yumdownloader --source gmp
(or grab the SRPM from a centos mirror)
rpm -i gmp-*-src.rpm
then go into
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES (not sure here-- its your expected buildroot)
and you will see that there is a bz2 from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gmp/
and another from mpfr.org.
To rebuild the gmp SRPM in the centos way, you should download the versions of those 2 bz2 files and edit the gmp.spec (../SPECS) to reflect that version
cd ../SPECS
rpmbuild -ba gmp.spec
