------------------------+----------------------------
The following sequence of commands somehow breaks the coercion framework.
This is on vanilla Sage 6.4.beta1. The problem only occurs if
{{{impl="pari_ffelt"}}} is explicitly given, even though that is the
default:
{{{
sage: k.<a> = GF(17^14, impl="pari_ffelt")
sage: _ = EllipticCurve_from_j(a^584645231109031).cardinality()
sage: k.<a> = GF(17^14, impl="pari_ffelt")
sage: _ = EllipticCurve_from_j(a^584645231109031).cardinality()
TypeError Traceback (most recent call
last)
[...]
TypeError: no coercion defined
}}}
Remark: the value `a^584645231109031` is chosen to lie in the subfield
`GF(17^2)`, an elliptic curve over this field is created in the
`cardinality()` call.
