Just FYI, I'm also working on an mpn_mul_basecase that makes use of
the T4 'mpmul' instruction which can do NxN 64-bit limb multiplies
for values of N from 1 to 32.

It's an instruction that seems like it was designed specifically for
libgmp :-)

I guess the ideal implementation would be to have gmp-mparam.h setup
so that basecase only gets invoked for N <= 32.
