Iterator interface

Not if `+= was removed from the Gmp interface, or if we added another lfun `destructive+ or similar it could use instead.

Hmm, no. That would require that a += b still falls back to a = a + b if there's no `+= in a, which wouldn't be good at all.

No, the problem is that there are places here and there where things like

m += (["foo": 17]);

are done with the explicit intention that the original mapping in m stays unchanged. They aren't easy to find.
