Hi

Thanks , hopefully before the end of the year I will get time to finish it all 
off. I've have added msvc "assembler" intrinsics and some timing routines so we 
can get a benchmark for pari with win32 , all the code for this is available 
here

http://code.google.com/p/sage-
windows/source/browse/packages/branches/#branches/pari-svn

which I'm hoping when you get time you will merge into the current svn .

here is the todo list

1)Pari is broken on Mingw32
  2)We only build gp.exe , should build and test the libpari as well
  3)Not tested the optional Pari modules 
  4)We dont build the ploth tests
  5)test "program" fails  , same for cygwin 
  6)If MSVC has 128bit types then we can add further intrinsics , same for
  GCC(which does have them) 
  8)MSVC can't compile one file at full optimisation

There was a couple of other bugs I was looking at :( , where does the time go?

Thanks
Jason
