Please test pari-2.7.3 prerelease 2


Dear PARI developers,

I have made a second prerelease of PARI 2.7.3 to address the following serious
issues:

   24- plotcopy would corrupt "string" objects (ROt_ST)                   [F81]
BA 25- [GP] default arguments to GP functions could cause corruption      [F82]
VBr26- [darwin] remove obsolete linker options that cause crashes [#1623] [F83]

Thanks to Volker Braun for fixing the compilation on Mac OS 10.10 Yosemite.

This second prerelease includes Windows binaries.
