   Getting back to my GNU Multiprecision studies, the next I had on my queue is MPZ, which might take a couple days to cover...

   The sublibrary around this numeric datastructure includes:

   * Wrappers around GMP random adding MPN normalization.
   * Division by power-of-two with reallocation & MPN normalization.
   * Wrappers around MPN division routines adding memory management & normalization, with it's own fastpath.
   * Swap fields of 2 MPZ structures.
   * Test whether a given bit in the array is set.

     * Wrapper around it's power routines.
     * Wrappers around addition/subtraction routines adding memory management with own fastpaths
     * The "Strong Lucas Primality Check" with several fastpaths (including considering the Jacobi test) & a division loop
     * A more sophisticated wrapper around GMP random adding memory management & MPN normalization
     * Wrappers around MPN squareroot routines adding memory management & own fastpaths
     * size-in-base wrapper
     * Sophisticated bitwise XOR normalization
