Comment (by was):
The generic MPolynomial_polydict poly's work fine as looking at the code
shows, but the libsingular ones break:
{{{
sage: p = next_prime(10^30); f = GF(p^2,'a')['x,y'].gen()
sage: type(f)
<class
'sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_element.MPolynomial_polydict'>
sage: f.change_ring(GF(p))
x
sage: p = next_prime(20); f = GF(p^2,'a')['x,y'].gen()
sage: type(f)
<type
'sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_libsingular.MPolynomial_libsingular'>
sage: f.change_ring(GF(p))

This is because the givaro finite field __call__ is wrong:
{{{
sage: GF(23)(GF(23^2,'a')(1))
BOOM!
TypeError: unable to coerce <type
'sage.rings.finite_field_givaro.FiniteField_givaroElement'> to an integer
but
sage: GF(next_prime(10^20))(GF(next_prime(10^20)^2,'a')(1))

}}}
