Could they trivially be reimplemented? What I use is the multiprecision floating point number class. doubles don't seem to be long enough. The reason for using mpmath rather than the more widespread GMP (and its python wrapper gmpy) is that the latter only supports integer powers, whereas BBChop needs fractional powers. So, it might be possible to switch to gmpy, or some other widespread library, by implementing a pow() which supports fractional powers. I think I only use the normal arithmetic operators, log, and pow, so in principle those could be reimplemented, to eliminate the dependency altogether. It seems a little bit of a waste of time, though.
