Sorry that was a mistake - I will update the 2.5.2 branch, NOT the
2.5.1 branch

I would prefer to wait until Bill does the work as quite a lot remains
to be done.  

In particular the exp branch contains both the old and the new FFT
code so it will need a big clean up after the new FFT has been
completed. 

We also have the issue of ensuring that the new mpir_si and mpir_ui
types (which allow Windows x64 to use 64-bit ints as the default) do
not kill any Unix/Linux builds.
