I know debian did it this way, but could you please put the #include line 
one line higher? These standard files are not meant to be included in 
weird situations like a namespace or a non-default linkage.

Besides, the "using std::FILE" should now be unconditional. cstdio is 
included in the line above so std::FILE must exist, but cstdio is included 
after the long macro check that defines _GMP_H_HAVE_FILE so it is not 
defined...

Maybe the include line would actually be best next to the iosfwd one at 
the beginning of the header?

Note: I am not discussing the ugliness of the solution, just trying to 
make the result correct.
