Comment (by rws):

 I wrote earlier:
 > Note that in Pynac/GiNaC the `degree`/`ldegree` member functions of
 `basic` returns an `int` and since that is `virtual =0`, all other objects
 do as well. So changing this would be major enhancement with performance
 repercussions.
 Maybe it is possible to check the expression for bigint exponents and, if
 so, call a special algorithm like lazy series. There are likely to be
 special cases of series expansion algorithms in the future, anyway, e.g. a
 call to fast univariate expansion via flint.
