Comment (by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:57 jdemeyer]:

 commit (with the `f` option in `git rebase -i`)

 Done. I kept two commits of largely different purpose. The first makes
 !MeatAxe build and install its tables into `DOT_SAGE`. The second commit
 implements and uses Winograd-Strassen multiplication in !MeatAxe.

 The self-tests (by `sage -f -c meataxe`) should pass. I don't know why
 they are a little flaky. Perhaps a race condition? Anyway, I think that's
 an upstream problem. Most of the time, the self-tests just pass fine.

 The third commit will be cython wrapper for !MeatAxe with which I can
 demonstrate that things work correct and very fast. And then I have to
 deal with doctests.
