After having looked briefly I have the impression that using an older
version of GMP or MPIR which is still under LGPL2 still seems better:

- GMP is already mature (and has been tested stable with ECL),
  it's documented and supports optimizations for a fair number of
  architectures, build scripts for various OSs
- The API used by the other libraries is of course different, needing
  some work to adapt ECL to them

BSDMP appears i386/amd64 centric, and mpdist seems to be FORTRAN and
C++ (no current ECL dependency requires C++, I'm not sure if that would
be a problem today though).

I have not looked at the other list you mentioned yet though, and was
not aware of these projects, thanks for the links.
