/*----- The idea ----------------------------------------------------------*
 *
 * This file provides functions and macros which work on vectors of words as
 * unsigned multiprecision integers.  The interface works in terms of base
 * and limit pointers (i.e., a pointer to the start of a vector, and a
 * pointer just past its end) rather than base pointer and length, because
 * that requires more arithmetic and state to work on.
 *
 * The interfaces are slightly bizarre in other ways.  Try to use the
 * higher-level functions where you can: they're rather better designed to
 * actually be friendly and useful.
