 I'm upgrading FLINT to 1.5.2 (not 1.6, at least for the moment, nor 2.x)
 for a couple of reasons (e.g. failing to build the test suite with MPIR
 2.x, cf. #9858, #8664; ARM support, cf. #10328). I had an almost ready
 spkg last year, but now have to rebase my changes since the p5 has
 meanwhile become a p9. (There's a lot wrong with this spkg, especially the
 `makefile`, but also `spkg-install` and even `SPKG.txt`.)

 I so far can confirm that the failing example given above works with FLINT
 1.5.2, so this ticket can most probably be closed when a new FLINT spkg
 has been merged.

 Stay tuned on #9858.
