Comment (by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:25 SimonKing]:
 > But one aspect has improved: !MeatAxe used to rely on certain tables
 that were put (and when needed also created) in the current directory. And
 I had to patch the c-sources so that !MeatAxe would be able to find the
 tables in a fixed directory. Now I cannot see any of these tables.

 I am afraid I stand corrected. Meanwhile I have a Cython wrapper on my
 laptop, and when I create a matrix over GF(2), then a file p002.zzz
 (defining multiplication table) is created in the current directory.

 That's a very nasty property of !MeatAxe. What shall we do about it?

 Shall we leave it like that?

 Shall I try to port my patch from 2.2.4 to 2.4.24 and ensure that all
 multiplication tables should be created in SAGE_ROOT/local/lib/meataxe/?
