Comment (by was):

 MAJOR PROBLEM!  Now that multiply_multi_modular is back, I wrote code to
 do some random testing of correctness.  I did not find situations where
 things are wrong... however, I quickly ran into major trouble because this
 ticket introduces a huge memory leak.    I just defined two matrices and
 multiplied them a few hundred times, and had major ram problems.  In
 particular, in sage-6.3 (without this branch):
 {{{
 sage: get_memory_usage()
 1047.1875
 sage: for i in range(50):
 ....:         a=random_matrix(ZZ,300); del a
 ....:
 sage: get_memory_usage()
 1047.1875
 }}}

 With this ticket:
 {{{
 sage: get_memory_usage()
 2132.09765625
 sage: for i in range(50):
     a=random_matrix(ZZ,300); del a
 ....:
 sage: get_memory_usage()
 2231.3203125
 }}}

 **Conclusion: making nontrivial use of the code on this ticket will very
 quickly use up all RAM on your computer.**

 So... needs work until that is fixed.
