Comment (by pbruin):

 Replying to [comment:40 jdemeyer]:
 > I asked `pari-dev` about a callback function instead of `longjmp()` for
 PARI error handling (i.e. option 3 above).
 There is the callback function `cb_pari_handle_exception`, but I don't
 quite see how to use this without any `longjmp()`; see comment:34.  Hence
 two questions:
 - Would a new callback function really be needed (e.g. because it has to
 be called at a different moment than `cb_pari_handle_exception`)?
 - Does the option 3 that you have in mind somehow avoid `longjmp()`, or do
 you propose to do the `longjmp()` inside a common error-handling function
 for signals and PARI errors?
