It is being developed; it is largely done, but is going through final reviews 
now.  When we finish with those review bits, we'll send it out.  It sounds like 
you'll beat us to the merge window, so, we'll cope with the fallout.

Well, I'd call it a pair of HOST_WIDE_INTs...  I think calling it a 
precision-controlled int is a tad optimistic.  For example, if want to control 
it to be 2048 bits, you'd find that your hopes are misplaced.  :-)
