+17.4.5 Managing MPFR and GMP Values
+-----------------------------------
+
+MPFR and GMP values are different from string values, where you can
+"take ownership" of the value simply by assigning pointers. For
+example:
+
+ char *p = gawk_malloc(42); p "owns" the memory
+ char *q = p;
+ p = NULL; now q "owns" it
+
+ MPFR and GMP objects are indeed allocated on the stack or
+dynamically, but the MPFR and GMP libraries treat these objects as
+values, the same way that you would pass an 'int' or a 'double' by
+value. There is no way to "transfer ownership" of MPFR and GMP objects.
+Thus, code in an extension should look like this:
+
+ part1 = get_mpz_ptr(); have gawk allocate a GMP value
+ part2 = get_mpz_ptr();
+ answer = get_mpz_ptr();
+
+ mpz_set_si(part1, 21); do some computations
+ mpz_set_si(part2, 21);
+ mpz_add(answer, part1, part2);
+ ...
+ // assume that result is a parameter of type (awk_value_t *).
+ make_number_mpz(answer, & result); set it with final GMP value

+MPFR and GMP values are different from string values, where you can
+``take ownership'' of the value simply by assigning pointers. For example:
+
+@example
+char *p = gawk_malloc(42); p @ii{``owns'' the memory}
+char *q = p;

+MPFR and GMP objects are indeed allocated on the stack or dynamically,
+but the MPFR and GMP libraries treat these objects as values, the same way that
+you would pass an @code{int} or a @code{double} by value. There is no

+part2 = get_mpz_ptr();
