Comment:

 Unfortunately, your patch conflicts with the patch from #9206, which was
 newly added to sage-4.5.2.alpha0.  You could download and build that
 release (read sage-release http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 release/browse_thread/thread/cc0b1929f66e0658?hl=en for a pointer to the
 source); or you could apply the patch from #9206 to your copy of Sage, and
 then redo your patch on top of that.

 Sorry you're having such a difficult time with your first patch -- but you
 have to expect the occasional patch conflict when you work in the fast-
 changing field of testing for prime powers :)
 (Just joking... the previous change to that code was in February 2009, so
 you're quite unlucky to have hit a time when somebody else was working on
 the same function.)
