Arbitrary precision arithmetic might be provided by wrapping a third-party library written in some-other programming language. How would you know?

First a few simple programs.

Then optimisations, multicore parallelism, [pdf] vector parallelism.

Last hand-written vector instructions and "unsafe" programs and the more obvious foreign function interface programs.
