Oh, shouldn't it be private? It looks like this could lead to funny state issues if used as a part of API.

I'll not mind of making it private. Do you want see it as separate function or as "inline" function?

IMO, it makes sense to have it on a prototype. Just prefix it with _. @dcousens what do you think?

@indutny I think the public interface semantics of move can be assumed that the originating object is reset or garbage after use.
I think it is fine to have on the public interface; however, I don't mind either way.

maybe indicate (via redIMul)

var red = BN.red(new BN(13));
var a = new BN(2).toRed(red);
var b = new BN(7).toRed(red);
var c = a.redIMul(b);
assert.equal(a.toNumber(), 1);
assert.equal(c.toNumber(), 1);
});
});
