We now have this function in our repository:

https://gmplib.org/repo/gmp/rev/c95f8df2b57e

It shares most of the code with the already existing mpq_cmp function. If
you have the possibility to test if it fits your needs (both on the speed
side and for the interface) we will be happy to know.

I hope its name will not be changed before the official release, but be
warned, it is not official yet.

Best regards,
m

PS: I'm not very happy for the testing code... too general to finely
explore the corner cases for the size-based branches...
