Comment(by mvngu):

 I assume that I only need to apply the patch {{{trac_6510.3.patch}}}. But
 why are there three functions {{{__nonzero__(self)}}} all of which are the
 same and reside in the same module, but each block of definition contains
 different stuff? For example, after applying {{{trac_6510.3.patch}}}, I
 get the following in {{{sage/groups/abelian_gps/abelian_group.py}}}:
 {{{
     def __nonzero__(self):
         return len(self.invariants()) != 0

     def __nonzero__(self):
         """
         Returns True if this group is nontrivial.

         EXAMPLES::

             sage: E = EllipticCurve([0,82])
             sage: T = E.torsion_subgroup()
             sage: bool(T)
             False
         """
         return len(self.invariants()) != 0

     def __nonzero__(self):
         """
         Returns True if this group is nontrivial.

         EXAMPLES::

             sage: E = EllipticCurve([0,82])
             sage: T = E.torsion_subgroup()
             sage: bool(T) # indirect doctest
             False
         """
         return len(self.invariants()) != 0
 }}}
 Choose which block of function definition you want, and upload a new
 patch. Preferrably, you should replace {{{trac_6510.3.patch}}} with your
 new patch. I'm marking this as needs work. After a new patch is uploaded,
 positive review can be reinstated.
