There's a ChangeLog entry from the day before yesterday:* doc/gmp.texi: Undocument mpz_array_init.
Thanks, I hadn't seen it yet.
One can still use mpz_realloc2, which can be viewed as an allocation hint to the gmp implementation (so in mini-gmp, it's harmless but also mostly useless, due to the frequent use of mpz_swap).
I was talking of the case where I already have a preexisting buffer I want to use as _mp_d, I don't want to allocate a new one with mpz_realloc2. That seems to be a few steps further than the new limb interface goes, and I can understand not wanting to support that.
Playing with mp_set_memory_functions, there is a complicated way to use a preexisting buffer without breaking if I am using mini-gmp, but having 2 versions of the code still seems simpler and more efficient (and that's all unsupported anyway).
I guess it would be hard to make an official interface that lets users reimplement __GMPXX_TMPZ_D.
