Comment(by craigcitro):

 As William pointed out on the mailing list, this code isn't used anywhere
 -- so we're just killing the function. The problem is that on 64 bit OSX,
 a value getting returned loses its top 4 bytes. This is clearly weird, but
 since this pari function is known to be buggy, we'll just not use it for
 now and cross our fingers.
