Comment:

 Replying to [comment:18 spancratz]:
 > 2) I am still running SAGE 4.0.2.  I wouldn't know how to sensibly
 rebase the patch to 4.1.1.  I am sure this is far from elegant, but what
 I'd do is download the SAGE 4.1.1 source, build from that, and then go
 through applying all the changes by hand again, much like it did yesterday
 to separate the different kinds of changes.  Could you perhaps explain a
 more sensible way to do this?

 This is (potentially) a little better than what you wrote above: build
 4.1.1 (or get a binary for your particular architecture from
 sagemath.org), and try to apply your patch to it.  If your patch touches
 several files in the Sage library, some of them might get patched
 properly, while others might get rejected.  Mercurial will let you know
 about these, and save the pieces that it couldn't figure out as e.g.
 {{{matrix1.pyx.rej}}}.  It is then a matter of dealing with them manually,
 as you described above.

 If the patch is not too bit-rotten, this is normally manageable.  Good
 luck, I'll be happy to see your code included.

 PS: I do think this qualifies as "major" so I changed the priority.
