Subject: Remove Math::PARI dependency
Math::Pari is severely broken for many 64-bit builds, especially on the Windows platforms (see https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=52146). Removing the Math::Pari dependency, or, at least, making it an optional/recommended module (both here and in Crypt::Primes) would allow Crypt::OpenPGP to function on a much wider platform base.

See: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=82314 There is already a patch sitting in Crypt::OpenPGP's queue (in the RT above) that removes Crypt::Random as a dependency, so I don't believe this is necessary.
