  Hi all,
      looking in the GMP manual for the latest version, I cannot find any MPF
  function like
  
  mpf_pow(mpf_t rop, mpf_t base, mpf_t exp)
  
  I know that in MPFR there's one, but is there a way to compute x^y (with
  both x and y mpf_t types) in simple GMP, without using MPFR ?
  
There is no mpf function for that, I am afraid.
