I committed the change to the error message for bit_length. Since SELF_NO_ARG 
is used
in many places and one of the error messages changes, I don't want to commit 
this to
1.04 without more thought.

Sorry this has taken so long but I've implemented these, and many more, 
improvements
in gmpy 1.11. Compared to gmpy 1.04, the test suite runs 9% faster.
