Comment (by dsm):

 One thing that whoever reviews this should check is whether there are any
 resulting time regressions.  I'm still slightly embarrassed that I didn't
 notice that my SR gcd patch slowed things down dramatically, because it
 didn't affect the overall runtime and it didn't really occur to me that
 Sage performance could depend so critically upon certain gcd calls failing
 quickly.

 I *think* that improving the behaviour in this case shouldn't have any
 time effects, because it's a lot less fundamental than messing with SR,
 but if there's one thing I've learned it's that my intuitions about Sage
 performance are worth about what I paid for them.
