guarantee <code>long long</code> conversions only when using GCC for both
application and library. That would cover free software, and we can
worry about selected vendor compilers later.
+ <br>
+ In C++ the situation is probably clearer, we demand fairly recent C++ so
+ <code>long long</code> should be available always. We'd probably prefer
+ to have the C and C++ the same in respect of <code>long long</code>
+ support, but it would be possible to have it unconditionally in gmpxx.h,
+ by some means or another.
<li> <code>mpz_strtoz</code> parsing the same as <code>strtol</code>.
