It is correct that eclib only uses pari in a very small way (for factoring integers).
I am also willing to help upgrade to pari 2.4. Maybe Alex Ghitza would also join in -- he and I worked well together fixing a lot of pari precision issues in 2008. Perhaps this should be coordinated somehow (sage-pari?). It might be possible to split the work up a bit.
