Having a library for arbitrary-precision arithmetic like gmp is a huge advantage in these competitions and making it easy to setup by people who are clueless idiots and know only how to press "next", "next", "next" so people who chose to compete and write their solutions in Pascal can use it is a must if we want to keep Pascal as a serious option for these competitions.

If a major problem is really the lack of standard support for arbitrary-precision arithmetic, does that not mean that C and C++ are no longer serious options either?
