I notice that Lucius was developing a bignums library some years ago. Did anything come of that? Is there support for bignums in Euphoria? I know, I should RTFM but I'm reading the friendy forum instead.

AFAIK, this was the last word on it. http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=29162387
In short, the idea was well received but the last known implementation was found lacking in a few areas, and no one has had time to to fix it (or prepare an alternative library).
A feature request for this is still open. http://openeuphoria.org/ticket/760.wc
