Yes, during implementation of first BigInt steps, I saw that we'll need some of these
vtables

There are currently 19 bignum vtable slots, which take a BIGNUM* value
argument of some kind. These are IMHO useless. We don't have a Parrot
basic type like BIGNUM.
A BIGNUM (BigInteger, BigNumber) will just be a PMC, AFAIK.
So I think these entries should just get deleted.
