It has LGPL licence, is this usable as implementation of D2 bigint?
No, LGPL is not a Boost compatible license. It is considerably more restrictive.

I've used MAPM in the past, it worked well for what I did. The license is much less restrictive, but is still a little more than boost's. But perhaps there's a chance someone can convince the author to make it boost-compatible. It can do arbitrary precision ints and floats.

What's wrong with d2's bigint that Don has written?
