Comment(by mabshoff):

 Unsurprisingly this causes a bunch of numerical noise problems:
 {{{
         sage -t -long
 devel/sage/sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/ell_number_field.py # 1 doctests
 failed
         sage -t -long devel/sage/sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/ell_point.py
 # 1 doctests failed
         sage -t -long devel/sage/sage/rings/rational_field.py # 1 doctests
 failed
         sage -t -long
 devel/sage/sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/period_lattice.py # 11 doctests
 failed
 }}}
 Some of them are quite disturbing:

 Expected:

 Got:
     (-1.9072648860892727038846028695 - 1.3404778596244020695699736749*I,
      -1.9072648860892727038846028695 + 1.3404778596244020695699736749*I)
 }}}
 I.e. notice that for the real part above '''11''' digits are different.

 Thoughts?

 Cheers,

 Michael
