Interesting ... I was unaware of that option. Does it enable you to get the 2.1.7 source ?
I've just tried building Math-Pari-2.010800 against pari-2.3.4 on Strawberry 5.10 and it's certainly *not* a trivial exercise. Firstly, to get it to compile I inserted the following code into pari-2.3.4/src/language/init.c: 
#ifndef PARI_VERSION_SHIFT
#define PARI_VERSION_SHIFT 8
#endif
#ifndef PARI_VERSION_CODE
#define PARI_VERSION_CODE 131844
#endif

Perhaps that's not the correct way to get it to build. There's lots of failing tests:

There were a number of segfaults scattered throughout the running of those tests, too.
