Hmm, I'm not sure we should add more gmp wrappers to bignum.[hc]. The
code dates back to before Nettle was split out of LSH, as can be seen in
the _s functions which do formatting according to the ssh binary format.

We also have some related functions in gmp-glue.c (for internal
use only),

  mpn_set_base256_le
  mpn_get_base256_le

but those work with the mpn layer, which lacks the general export/import
functions.

What use for these functions do you have in mind? Application use, or
some code you'd like to add to Nettle?

Regards,
