Comment(by wdj):

 For me, a small speed up does not matter. The function is used
 theoretically in security estimates for the BBS stream cipher. I'm not
 saying that you should not try to speed things up, it is just that it is
 more important for the function to exist in Sage that for it to be fast.
 But if someone wants me to referee a new patch, that is fine too.
