Comment(by was):

 The new ellap (which replaces the sea.gp script in sage) is seriously
 buggy, evidently.  Sometimes it works, but the first example I tried fails
 miserably.
 {{{

 ? ellap(ellinit([1,2,7,4,3]),nextprime(10^20))
 %1 = -4070602678
 ? ellap(ellinit([1,2,3,4,5]),nextprime(10^20))
   ***   at top-level: ellap(ellinit([1,2,3
   ***                 ^--------------------
   *** ellap: bug in PARI/GP (Segmentation Fault), please report
   ***   Break loop: type 'break' to go back to GP
 break>

 ? ellap(ellinit([1,2,3,4,5]),nextprime(10^25))
 %2 = 1231939791654
 ? ellap(ellinit([1,2,3,4,5]),nextprime(10^30))
 %3 = 1790178944607137
 ? ellap(ellinit([1,2,3,4,5]),nextprime(10^35))
   ***   at top-level: ellap(ellinit([1,2,3
   ***                 ^--------------------
   *** ellap: bug in PARI/GP (Segmentation Fault), please report
   ***   Break loop: type 'break' to go back to GP
 break>
 }}}

 NOTE: To use ellap for big p, you *must* put the extracted data from
 seadata.tgz/data/*  in local/share/pari, as explained here:
 http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/packages.html

 I'm reporting this bug upstream now.
