I have to ask (mainly out of curiosity) - do you have any plans to
change that ? Or will Math::Pari, from here to eternity, always depend
on pari-2.1.7 ?

I gather the "update" to 2.3.4 support must be not-all-that-trivial,
or you would have done it already.

I have tried (and failed) to build Math-Pari-2.010800 against 2.3.4.
The 'make' process runs fine - but there are numerous 'make test'
failures (on perl-5.10.0, btw), most of which don't obviously relate
to the fact that I've attempted to build against 2.3.4. Afaict, most
of the failures appear to be purely perl issues. Building against
2.1.7 works flawlessly, however.

Cheers,
Rob
