-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 We provide an upgrade to eclib to patch-level 9, i.e.
 eclib-20080310.p9.spkg.  This does two things:

     1. Fixes a bug (found by Edray Goins and Jamie Wiegandt) in which
 second descent quartics were not tested for real-solubility, and so
 sometimes the rank bounds (and related selmer ranks) could be too high.

     2. Enhances the data available from the two_descent class so that the
 rank_bound and selmer_rank are separated, and both available.

 The second item necessitated changes to the interface, which are here
 included in the patch.  In turn, some changes were needed in
 sage/schemes/elliptic_curve/

 Note that this affects #7575.
