From Andreas Enge 31 August 2011:
implement mul_karatsuba with three multiplications at precision around p,
instead of two at precision 2*p and one at precision p
requires analysis of error propagation

From Andreas Enge 30 August 2011:
As soon as dependent on mpfr>=3, remove auxiliary functions from
get_version.c and update mpc.h.
Use MPFR_RND? instead of GMP_RND?, and remove workarounds for MPFR_RNDA from
mpc-impl.h.

From Andreas Enge 05 July 2012:
Add support for rounding mode MPFR_RNDA.

From Andreas Enge and Paul Zimmermann 6 July 2012:
Improve speed of Im (atan) for x+i*y with small y, for instance by using
the Taylor series directly.

Bench:
- from Andreas Enge 9 June 2009:
  Scripts and web page comparing timings with different systems,
  as done for mpfr at http://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-2.4.0/timings.html

New functions to implement:
- from Joseph S. Myers <joseph at codesourcery dot com> 19 Mar 2012: mpc_erf,
  mpc_erfc, mpc_exp2, mpc_expm1, mpc_log1p, mpc_log2, mpc_lgamma, mpc_tgamma
  http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/mpc-discuss/2012-March/001090.html
- from Andreas Enge and Philippe Théveny 17 July 2008
  agm (and complex logarithm with agm ?)
- from Andreas Enge 25 June 2009:
  correctly rounded roots of unity zeta_n^i
- implement a root-finding algorithm using the Durand-Kerner method
  (cf http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durand%E2%80%93Kerner_method)
  See also the CEVAL algorithm from Yap and Sagraloff:

New tests to add:
- from Andreas Enge and Philippe Théveny 9 April 2008
  correct handling of Nan and infinities in the case of
  intermediate overflows while the result may fit (we need special code)
