gp> ??incgamc
incgamc(s,x):

   complementary incomplete gamma function.

   The  arguments  s  and  x must be positive.   The result returned is int_0^x
e^{-t}t^{s-1}dt, when x is not too large.

   The library syntax is incgam3(s,x,prec).

gp> incgamc(-1,1)
  ***   division by zero in R/R

Seems like a bug to me. Shalom, Michael
