As a quick note, I think that the more significant aspect of Flori's work
is that he appears to have code that can output efficiently verifiable
certificates for curves with the wrong cofactor.

(I have tried to get the necessary output from PARI's SEA early-aborts,
based on some code of Mike's, but have mainly succeeded in causing
segfaults because of PARI's rather obtuse stack-based garbage collection.)
