 reduction? It is (supposed to be) much faster, but maybe the speed of the
 LLL is negligible for your application? Just curious.

 Unless I am mistaken, fpLLL only works on *integer* matrices, where the
 input is a basis for the lattice.  The same is true of NTL's LLL code.
 What we need here is LLL on a lattice given only the real (floating point)
 gram matrix;  there is no underlying integer lattice.

 It's the same reason why reduced_basis() for number fields uses pari, and
 also why mwrank does not LLL-reduce its bases in the first place!
