Question on multiprecision types

That will not have a core language support, beside perhaps 
cent/ucent. At the moment there are no plans for library support, 
but eventually in some years fixed-size multi-precision integers 
will be good to have in Phobos, just like several other things, 
like nD packed arrays 
(http://pempek.net/articles/2013/08/03/packedarray-random-access-array-tightly-packed-unsigned-integers/ 
) etc.
