Comment:

 In Python one must not use __dealloc__() to free C resources, at least not
 unless you are absolutely certain that the Python object does not
 participate in circular references.

 Does it help to do an explicit `gc.collect()` at the end of `quit_sage`
 and only then deallocate Pari? If not we might have to give up clearing
 the Pari stack...
