secp256k1_fe_normalize_var(&pk.y);
/* Negate sk if secp256k1_fe_is_odd(&cache_i.pk.y)) XOR cache_i.parity_acc.
* This corresponds to the line "Let d = g⋅gacc⋅d' mod n" in the
* specification. */
if ((secp256k1_fe_is_odd(&cache_i.pk.y)
!= cache_i.parity_acc)) {
secp256k1_scalar_negate(&sk, &sk);
}

I'm not sure why pk.y is being normalized here. Shouldn't cache_i.pk.y be normalized instead? That's the one passed to the fe_is_odd function, which requires the field element to be normalized.

Just a side note: all tests still pass even after removing this function call (line 579).

Thanks, I think all the corrections were either addressed or pointed out in the PR to upstream libsecp256k1.

I think it's best if we merge the PR in upstream libsecp first and then merge the changes to this repo.
