Hi,

  I just checked your example with pari-2.1.4 (current stable release), and
the bug has been corrected. I checked further, and it was in fact fixed
between 2.1.1 and 2.1.2. It was probably due to a stack corruption in a more
basic routine (presumably the addfrac item 2.1.2-Fixed-15).

So, you should upgrade! [hopefully, so will fink]
