Just one more data point: the exact same thing happened to me.
I started CTM around September 1997, and I'm absolutely sure I
didn't mess up with anything in libgmp ever since.

Like Matthew I had to do the above "mkdir -p" to get the patch
to apply (then I got my surprise with the whole bunch of stuff it
was deleting, that's the combination of all this which prompted
me to ask the list if everything was ok with the deletions).

It's possible there was a minor sync problem between the complete
CTM archive I started from (I believe it was 3000 or 3100) and
the source tree. I'll have a look at home if I still have it
lying around (I doubt it).

I'm not sure it's worth the bother to have a closer look at where
the problem might come from, unless it happens again in the future.

Again, I'm mentioning this as just one more data point in case it
can help, I'm not complaining. On the whole, CTM is a very reliable
way to receive updates.
