I have no problems getting the PPD
<SOFTPKG NAME="Math-GMP" VERSION="2,04,0,0"> <TITLE>Math-GMP</TITLE> <ABSTRACT>High speed arbitrary size integer math </ABSTRACT> <AUTHOR>Chip Turner</AUTHOR> <IMPLEMENTATION> <OS NAME="MSWin32" /> <ARCHITECTURE NAME="MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.8" /> <CODEBASE HREF="http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/x86/Math-GMP.tar.g +z" /> <PROVIDE NAME="Math::GMP" VERSION="2.04" /> </IMPLEMENTATION> </SOFTPKG>

And I had no problems installing it (ActivePerl 5.8.8).

>ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/Math-GMP.ppd Downloading Math-GMP-2.04...done Unpacking Math-GMP-2.04...done Generating HTML for Math-GMP-2.04...done Updating files in site area...done 5 files installed >perl -le"use Math::GMP; print Math::GMP->VERSION" 2.04

I think installation consists of unzipping and generating docs. If you're ok with skipping the latter, just do the former.
