-------------------------+----------------------------
 The `rings` version apparently gets overwritten on import. One should
 provide the much slower algorithms `gmp` and `pari` from that version.

 It's a defect because the `reference/misc/sage/rings/arith.html`
 documentation makes users expect the `algorithm` keyword to work but
 {{{
 sage: y=factorial(10^6,algorithm='gmp')
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ...
 TypeError: __call__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'algorithm'
 }}}
