At the time I started almost two years ago, there was a much simpler 
wrapper or two, searching now yields a couple, but they are both for 
integers only and don't use deferred execution.  At any rate, there isn't 
one that's officially part of MPIR, so I thought I'd make one.

Visual Studio does assume Windows; I haven't done any work in c# on Linux 
so that is indeed a very good question.  Since my interop is written in 
C++/CLI, it's most likely a no-go for Linux, but according to 
http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2011/Dec-19.html Mono on Linux can already 
consume C++ directly so I'm guessing it can just use the native MPIR C++ 
interface.  Mine was an effort to open MPIR to Windows .Net developers.

On Linux, "makeinfo mpir.texi" runs without error, but "make pdf" gets me a 
"No rule to make target 'pdf'".  However I can use "texi2dvi --pdf 
mpir.texi" to create a PDF; is that the same thing?

I'm confused about diff vs. whole project.  I was envisioning that my 
files, 95% of which are new and a handful existing MPIR files slightly 
modified, would become part of your repo just like Brian's VS builds now 
are.  Then anyone downloading an MPIR release sources from mpir.org would 
have the option, if they like, to build my adapter and consume it.  The 
other way this can work, and they can do it today, is if they clone my own 
fork, but I wonder if anyone in the world besides the readers of this 
thread knows about it.
