Thanks for all of your recent work on bignum issues, which has
siginificantly improved the bignum implementation.

I agree that performance is not an issue. However implementing these in lisp
assumes that bignums never represent values in fixnum range, rather than
checking that. We need some checks at the C level to ensure that this
property always holds.
