Comment:

 I tried again the 22 tests which did produce a Segfault, by changing
 zech_log_bound from 2^16^ to
 2 in rings/finite_field.py, thus disabling Givaro for extension fields. I
 get no Segfault any more.
 However, 9 of the 22 tests do fail, for example:
 {{{
 [zimme...@coing sage]$ sage -t matrix/matrix_space.py
 sage -t  "devel/sage-7773/sage/matrix/matrix_space.py"
 **********************************************************************
 File
 "/usr/local/sage-4.3.3/sage/devel/sage-7773/sage/matrix/matrix_space.py",
 line 1222:
     sage: Mat(GF(9,'a'),3,sparse=True).random_element()
 Expected:
     [    2*a       a       1]
     [      2       1 2*a + 1]
     [      a       2       2]
 Got:
     [  a + 2 2*a + 1       a]
     [2*a + 2     2*a       0]
     [      0     2*a       0]
 }}}
 I'm not sure we can doctest the result of the {{{random_element}}} method.
 In other words, is it normal that some tests do fail if one changes
 {{{zech_log_bound}}}?
 Should I open a separate ticket for this?
