Comment:

 Hello,

 1. there is no need to add method `dirmul` and `dirdiv` to the pari `gen`
 object. This is taken care automatically since #17631. Doctesting is cool
 thoug. But move it somewhere else.

 2. Why is this new module in `sage.modular`? It makes no sense.

 3. You should try harder to use `pari` and not `gp`. Since #17631, most
 functions are available directly in `pari`.

 4. `DirichletSeries` would better inherit from `RingElement`. In that
 case, you must not define `__add__`, `__mul__`, `__div__` etc but `_add_`,
 `_mul_`, `_div_`. That way you will get benefits from coercion (e.g.
 multiplication by scalars). You might have a look to polynomials (in
 `sage.rings.polynomials.*` or power series (in
 `sage.rings.power_series_*`).

 5. What is the purpose of the commented code?

 6. The error must be new style ones. Please use
 {{{
     raise MyError("my message")
 }}}
   instead of
 {{{
     raise MyError, "my message"
 }}}
