+1.

Beman, if this is likely to be fixed/changed soon I'll hold off filing any
more admin requests, and add additional folks to the Math and Multiprecision
libs myself, otherwise it's back to filing admin requests I guess.

Thanks, and my apologies for the small blizzard of requests you guys are
getting, you're doing, and have done, great work with the conversion!
