Re-sending my message which went to parrot-dev, and should have gone to

Handling large integers is only the start of what modern multi-precision
integers are there for. Really, what they're becoming is high performance
math libraries, sans the typical arbitrary limitations of native ints

Parrot does

Parrot does use GMP. What we're discussing is how appropriate those are for
Perl 6.

It's an interim limitation, but I don't

My guess is that Rakudo will ultimately develop its own

It does in Perl 6, but not in Rakudo

I've been running into all sorts of problems trying to take S02 at its word
that Int supports arbitrary precision. It *sort of* does. But there are the
edge cases where it doesn't. This might just be something that's not there
yet, and I understand, but I thought I should report it.

It does in Perl 6, but not in Rakudo (known limitation).
