Loïc was suggesting to add 'iterators' to GP so that parfirst could be 
applied to potentially infinite lists.

Unrelatedy, if you want to define iterator in GP you can do

mkiter(v,fun,name)=my(x__=[v,fun,name]);eval(Str(name,"=x__"));
a__.value=a__[1];
a__.next=my(x__=a__[2](a__[1]));eval(Str(a__[3],"[1]=x__"));

? mkiter(1,x->x++,"iter1");
? iter1.value
%3 = 1
? iter1.next
%4 = 2
? iter1.value
%5 = 2
? iter1.next
%6 = 3

Cheers,
Bill.
