2) For veceint1, a documentation problem: the function is implemented to

other transcendental functions, but corresponds to the main application
for us: computing L-functions via approximate functional equation. I
have just fixed the documentation.
And can you say what is the absolute bound? Knowing there is an absolute bound but not knowing what the bound actually is, is not really that useful.
