That would then result in circular build dependencies, e.g.:

pari => pari-galpol => pari-gp (which is built from pari)

So I think it's best to leave that as it is, as per the other pari data
packages.

That's what I thought too. In fact, the package would be broken if we didn't
include them.

I have a pari-2.7.0 build now but so far of the four packages I've tried
building against it, three of them (Macaulay2, L-function, genus2reduction)
failed and only eclib succeeded. Looks like this update may be quite a bit of
work.
