Thus, I think it's more of a documentation issue than code issue:
it will be much better to just say that mpz_powm_sec() is not usable for
cryptographic purposes and to deprecate it.

Not sure if "unusable" is right, but besides that, I agree documenting
the problem, and discouraging usage, is reasonable action.

So... how do we do that?

Should I prepare a patch for this (I'm guessing that the doc sources are
together with code), or are you going to do that?
