Setting global handles for libgmp via mp_set_memory_functions() is very ugly. When we don't use mini-gmp, then potentially there are other users of the library in the same process, and every process fighting about the allocation functions is not gonna work. It also means, we must not reset the allocation functions after somebody already allocated GMP data with them. Which we cannot ensure, as we don't know what other parts of the process are doing. It's also unnecessary. The default allocation functions for gmp and mini-gmp already abort the process on allocation failure ([1], [2]), just like our xmalloc(). Just don't do this.
