Comment(by wuthrich):

 Maybe you make a little sign error ? In the bug-example, the valuation of
 a6 at P = (a) is -2. So e is -1. So you are really multiplying the ais by
 pi^+i^. So pi should be integral away from P.

 As to your comment on {{{tamagawa_product()}}}, we have

 {{{
 sage: E = EllipticCurve('11a2')
 sage: E.tamagawa_product()
 1

 sage: E2 = E.change_weierstrass_model([1/11,0,0,1])
 sage: E2
 Elliptic Curve defined by y^2 + 3993*y = x^3 - 121*x^2 - 114492620*x -
 466951591502 over Rational Field
 sage: E2.tamagawa_product()
 1
 }}}

 So it is defined to be the product of the Tamagawa numbers (i.e. the index
 of E^0^ (K_v)) on the minimal model.

 My definition (and that is the only sensible over number fields) of
 {{{tamagawa_product()}}} changes as one changes the chosen invariant
 differential in such a way that the product of it with the periods is
 invariant under this choice. In particular it is not the product of the
 Tamagawa numbers despite the name.
