Large number support (BIG INT)

What type of options are available in Cocoa (or C) to support arithmetic and trigonometric operations on large numbers (i.e. numbers with thousands or even millions of digits)? It appears that a 'double' in Cocoa works OK until it approaches around 15 digits of accuracy. After that, then things might start going wrong. Are there any GNU or freely available packages for large number support?
