 With the attached patch multinomial_coefficients(m,n) becomes faster
 than the unpatched version as m increases

 Sage-4.5.1
 sage: %timeit w = multinomial_coefficients(int(20),int(5))
 5 loops, best of 3: 4.91 s per loop

 with patch:
 sage: %timeit w = multinomial_coefficients(int(20),int(5))
 5 loops, best of 3: 1.05 s per loop
