Fix the compliation error *for real* ... and restore performance

such that it can read in user defined classes again.') made the parser a bit
slower, especially if the input contains many terms of user-defined type.
The reason for that is quite simple: we throw and catch an exception every
time we construct an object of user-defined type:

       // dirty hack to distinguish between serial numbers of functions and real

technique to distinguish between serial and pointers to functions.

Effect: fixes (rare) GCD miscalculation.

pgcd() treats polynomials Z_p[x_0, ..., x_n] as R[x_0, ..., x_{n - 1}], where
R = Z_p[x_n]. Therefore one should use correct definition of the degree
