Comment(by GeorgSWeber):

 Some more tapping around in the dark:
 {{{
         EXAMPLES::

             sage: testname = ZZ^7
             sage: testname.base_extend(QQ)
             Vector space of dimension 7 over Rational Field
 }}}
 gives:
 {{{
 **********************************************************************
 File
 "/Users/Shared/sage/test/sage-4.4.2/devel/sage/sage/modules/free_module.py",
 line 1125:
     sage: testname.base_extend(QQ)
 Expected:
     Vector space of dimension 7 over Rational Field
 Got:
     V
 **********************************************************************
 }}}
 Amazing. Now try a bit "Eau de Cologne":
 {{{
         EXAMPLES::

             sage: testname = ZZ^4711
             sage: testname.base_extend(QQ)
             Vector space of dimension 4711 over Rational Field
 }}}
 and this gives (repeatedly, several times):
 {{{
 sage -t  "devel/sage/sage/modules/free_module.py"
          [35.3 s]

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 All tests passed!
 Total time for all tests: 35.3 seconds
 }}}
 Hmm, I've got to stop here for today, but the next thing one might check,
 is whether in (the doctest file of) free_module.py, somewhere there is
 *another* "ZZ^7" lurking with the name of "V", getting loaded/dumped or
 something like that ...
