Hi all,
some time ago I asked a question about a flaw in the Python
extension/API under Linux but it seems to me I got no response.
Meanwhile, I nevertheless have complied a tiny library of basic
multiple-precision functions taken from the Python library mpmath.
Though it was originally designed as a proof of concept of how to
switch from the XLS-xNumbers combination to GNM plus some extension
under Linux, it may be an inspiration to others. Here is the link to
the corrsponding blog entry:

After having successfully installed all the files, it should be
possible to work with an XLS-file containing calls to the extended
precision functions of the FOSS XL-Add-in xNumbers in gnumeric that
are supported by my tiny library, at least, it works on my PC... the
library will grow slowly but continuously.
Comments are welcome...
Regards
Georg
