The first one would be an implementation of arbitrary precision arithmetic for C++. I checked the mailing list archives an I found that the BigInt project was already taken for GSoC 2007 but I haven't found usable code about it apart from that located in the repository of past GSoCs (sandbox).
See also the recent, firey review of Chad's XInt library. I would discourage you from working on arbitrary precision for a GSoC, since it's a very hard thing to get approved.
