gmp_float backend with variable precision does not have distributive property

Description

A simple example (attached) shows that the GMP backend (and MPFR as well) do not fulfill the distributive property when variable precision is chosen. This happens when values are initialized by fractions. It does not happen, when values are initialized by simple double values.
