Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:6 Snark]:
 > The commits used were from upstream, but the patch is '''based''' on
 those commits -- it's not just them. That means that the pari in sage is
 neither compatible with upstream's 2.5.3, nor with the upcoming 2.6.0.
 I thought backporting patches from later upstream versions is standard
 practice.
