New description:

 1. GCC 4.6.3 miscompiles `src/language/init.c` on OS X 10.4 PPC (32-bit),
 because of a problem with pointer arithmetic in `stack_base()` called in
 `pari_init_functions()`.  There is an easy work-around by reordering some
 code in the PARI sources.  Related to #12369.

 This is upstream bug [http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49330]

 -----

 2. PARI's `ispower()` function gives wrong results when applied to
 negative numbers.  Related to #12116.

 This is fixed upstream [http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/cgi-
 bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1302]

 -----

 3. issquarefree(0) raises an error instead of returning 0.  See #12636.

 This is fixed upstream [http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/cgi-
 bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1304]
