Hum, it looks like the 'dlcompat' library still fails to provide the expected
support.  Does it still occur when you add -fPIC to CFLAGS and recompile ??
(I think Math::Pari includes it by default ?)  [make sure you 'make clean'
before 'make bench']

No it's not.

The typo occured twice, and did produce two parsing errors.

Thanks for your efforts,
