 Yes, it was working before I did major refactoring of the code. At that
point I wasn't using template parametrized structures to do conversion from
integer types to floating point types.

2) foo(static_cast<number_type>(**a+b));

3) foo<number_type>(a+b);

 I was thinking of those approaches. It makes sense to change my code
appropriately as it will also enable usage of mpz_class as you noticed
above. As a separate benchmark it would be good to have
time comparison of fixed_int code working with and without expression
template type.

Will post benchmark results a bit later.

Thanks,
