  Would mpz_get_ld become acceptable with an appropriate autoconf test
  for ldexpl and a silly loop as a fallback?
  
I think we should instead do it similarly to mpz_get_d,
i.e., dig out the bits ourselves.

(We have made sure user code using GMP will not depend on libm via GMP.
I think that is a convenience we should try to maintain.)
