Then we'd need something like

  #ifndef MINI_GMP_LIMB_TYPE
  #define MINI_GMP_LIMB_TYPE unsigned long
  #endif

  typedef MINI_GMP_LIMB_TYPE mp_limb_t

in mini-gmp.h.

Is there any simpler or prettier way? One could do it in two lines less
as

  #ifndef mp_limb_t
  typedef unsigned long mp_limb_t
  #endif

(leaving to the overriding code to define the type) but I'm not sure I
like that better.
