Comment(by cremona):

 The new patch trac_6046.patch replaces all earlier ones.  I have taken
 Francis's advice and now use the places() function (notwithstanding the
 issue raised above).  This meant implementing places() for relative
 extensions, which I did.  I also made a slight refinement to
 K.primes_above() which used to sort on degree but now also sort on norm
 (thus avoiding one possible source of doctest failures due to randomness).
 It may well be that whoever wrote this only ever intended it to be used
 with prime arguments!  Note however that where there are two primes in the
 list with the same degree and norm, the order is not necessarily
 canonical.

 I have tested this on both 32-bit and 64-bit machines.
