Comment(by cremona):
For info: the only reason that I use the name "bigint" in my code is that
I allow (or used to allow) LiDIA integers as an alternative to NTL ones,
and had a common interface which worked with both. But Sage's build of
eclib only ever uses the NTL ints. So as far as Sage is concerned, my
bigints are the same as NTL's ZZ: not a wrapper for them, but the exact
same type.
This should surely make it easier to interface between eclib (and its
bigints which are just NTL ZZs) and Sage. There is quite a lot of useful
stuff in eclib which Sage does not yet interface to, which is a pity (e.g.
solution of conics over Q).
