Do you mean _mp_d should be set to the first nonzero limb:
Will this cause a leak?

unsigned int stripLowZeroLimbs(mpf_ptr f)
{
     int		sizeNew		= f->_mp_size;
     mp_limb_t*	limbs		= f->_mp_d;
     mp_limb_t*	limb		= 0;

     while (*(limb = limbs++) == 0 && sizeNew > 1)
     {
         //free(limb);
         sizeNew--;
     }

     f->_mp_size = sizeNew;
     f->_mp_d = limb;

     return f->_mp_size - sizeNew;
}

You need to move the retained limbs down to the start of f->_mp_d too.
