the spkg-install somehow and then do no optimization if that's the case.
Power users who need Pari optimized would be expected to have the
technical know-how to use the right one, and as you say the binary builder
could have this as well.

I suppose it really depends on both how ''much'' slower Pari would be
(which I have no idea) and how much we depend on Pari for "ordinary"
functionality which has to be fast (which I believe is much less than it
used to be, since mpmath does a lot of stuff now).
It's certainly better than telling people they can't compile Sage at all,
and your point about the binaries is naturally spot-on.
