I'm going to reject this for the reasons already given above.  It's easy to write your own (lightweight, inefficient) lcm and multi-argument gcd if you need them.  For more serious work, you probably want to avoid Python's gcd anyway---it's horribly inefficient, and there are 3rd party solutions for specialised number-theoretic work (e.g., SymPy, SAGE, gmpy2).
