Cleaned up expected value code a little
Refactored running statistics objects (hid private fields, added
`update-statistics*')
Documented expected value functions and running statistics
Removed `bfpsi0' from bigfloat tests (DrDr's libmpfr doesn't have it)
Commented out custodian shutdown callback that frees MPFR's cache
(something's broken)
of libmpfr (like DrDr's) that don't have it
Reimplemented really simple FFI functions (e.g. mpfr-prec, mpfr-exp) to
avoid calling overhead
Renamed `bigfloat-sign' to `bigfloat-signbit'
Renamed `bigfloat-sig+exp' to `bigfloat->sig+exp' (for symmetry with
`sig+exp->bigfloat')
Fixed bigfloat functions that assumed (fixnum? x) means x fits in a _long
(not true on Win64)
Hopefully fixed dangling pointer errors that broke `math/bigfloat' on Win64.
It apparently had no _long/_int mismatches, but GC on Win64 will run between
creating an `_mpz' and using its value after passing it as an output argument
to MPFR functions. That doesn't seem to happen on 64-bit Linux or Mac. No
idea why, but Win64 exposed the problem so... that's good, I guess.
Rewrote `rational->bigfloat' to not use GMP's rationals
More/better bigfloat tests
Added bigfloat stress test w/ weak leak detection
Reenabled custodian shutdown callback that clears MPFR constants, because it
seems to work now
Removed `mpfr-available?' because it would only return non-#f

Some things about this are known to be broken (most egregious is that the
array tests DO NOT RUN because of a problem in typed/rackunit), about half
has no coverage in the tests, and half has no documentation. Fixes and
docs are coming. This is committed now to allow others to find errors and
inconsistency in the things that appear to be working, and to give the
author a (rather incomplete) sense of closure.
