Comment:

 Please restore the warning
 {{{
 warn("the 'modulus' argument is ignored when constructing prime finite
 fields")
 }}}
 for all prime finite field implementations because the modulus really is
 ignored:
 {{{
 sage: x = polygen(GF(7)); GF(7, modulus=x-2, impl="givaro").modulus()
 x + 6
 }}}

 Of course we could change that behaviour (perhaps we should), but let's do
 that on a new ticket.
