Comment(by cremona):

 Chris,

 You are not quite right.  What is deprecated is EllipticCurve(j0), not
 EllipticCurve(j=j0):
 {{{
 sage: EllipticCurve(GF(101)(1728))
 /home/john/sage-4.3.1.alpha1/local/bin/sage-ipython:1: DeprecationWarning:
 'EllipticCurve(j)' is deprecated; use 'EllipticCurve_from_j(j)' or
 'EllipticCurve(j=j)' instead.
   #!/usr/bin/env python
 Elliptic Curve defined by y^2 = x^3 + x over Finite Field of size 101
 sage: EllipticCurve(j=GF(101)(1728))
 Elliptic Curve defined by y^2 = x^3 + x over Finite Field of size 101
 }}}
 Now I cannot remember when that deprecation was put in, hence when it
 should be removed.

 Anyway, Victor's point is a valid one, and I'll put up a patch!
