Excellent, I like this a lot.  I was thinking about providing
scm_export_intgeror something like that, duplicating the mpz
functions, but this is much nicer.  It _does_ expose the use of GMP,
but we will be tied to that for a the time being anyway.

I will install your code and documentation.  We can use it without any
paper work since it is, while elegant, short enough.
