 `bnfcertify`, `bnfunit`, `idealval`, `nfsubfields`,  .Would it be possible
 to provide one to check that the methods exist?

 these functions are used in Sage library code, there is an implicit test
 that they work. If they are not used, I don't see why it's our business to
 check that PARI/GP has a `vecmin()` function for example.

 But these functions used to be there. Some people might use them outside
 of the Sage library code. I do not claim that the code was good from the
 begining but that the changes should be as smooth as possible.

 `listput` were simply removed. You should provide deprecation and test it.

 three indeed disappeared.

 The same remark applies.
