+   conversions, like mpz_set_f or mpz_set_q, and is easy to implement and test.
 
    In the past conversions had attempted (imperfectly) to let the hardware
    float rounding mode take effect, but that gets tricky since multiple
    roundings need to be avoided, or taken into account, and denorms mean the
    effective precision of the mantissa is not constant.  (For reference,
-   mpz_get_d on IEEE systems was ok, except it operated on the absolute
-   value.  mpf_get_d and mpq_get_d suffered from multiple roundings and from
-   not always using enough bits to get the rounding right.)

    It's felt that GMP is not primarily concerned with hardware floats, and
    really isn't enhanced by getting involved with hardware rounding modes
-   (which could even be some weird unknown style), so something unambiguous
-   and straightforward is best.
+   (which could even be some weird unknown style), so something unambiguous and
+   straightforward is best.
 
 
    The IEEE code below is the usual case, it knows either a 32-bit or 64-bit
    limb and is done with shifts and masks.  The 64-bit case in particular
    should come out nice and compact.
 
-   The generic code works one bit at a time, which will be quite slow, but
-   should support any binary-based "double" and be safe against any rounding
-   mode.  Note in particular it works on IEEE systems too.
+   The generic code used to work one bit at a time, which was ont only slow,
+   but implicitly relied upon denoms for intermediates, since the lowest bits'
+   weight of a perfectly valid fp number underflows in non-denorm.  Therefore,
+   the generic code now works limb-per-limb, initially creating a number x such
+   that 1 <= x <= BASE.  (BASE is reached only as result of rounding.)  Then
+   x's exponent is scaled with explicit code (not ldexp to avoid libm
+   dependency).  It is a tap-dance to avoid underflow or overflow, beware!
 
 
    Traps:
 
-   Hardware traps for overflow to infinity, underflow to zero, or
-   unsupported denorms may or may not be taken.  The IEEE code works bitwise
-   and so probably won't trigger them, the generic code works by float
-   operations and so probably will.  This difference might be thought less
-   than ideal, but again its felt straightforward code is better than trying
-   to get intimate with hardware exceptions (of perhaps unknown nature).

    Not done:
 
-   mpz_get_d in the past handled size==1 with a cast limb->double.  This
-   might still be worthwhile there (for up to the mantissa many bits), but
-   for mpn_get_d here, the cost of applying "exp" to the resulting exponent
-   would probably use up any benefit a cast may have over bit twiddling.
-   Also, if the exponent is pushed into denorm range then bit twiddling is
-   the only option, to ensure the desired truncation is obtained.
