Comment:

 This second patch, applied after the first one, will solve the both issues
 in the ticket description and revert back some errors introduced earlier.

 The problem was a "/2" in a formula. I have absolutely no idea why I put
 that there. To check that the formula is now correct, I did the
 following::

 {{{
 sage: rs = flatten([[a/m for a in srange(1,m) if gcd(a,m)==1] for m in
 srange(2,20)])
 sage: for E in cremona_curves([11..100]):
 ....:     m = E.modular_symbol(use_eclib=False)
 ....:     me = E.modular_symbol(use_eclib=True)
 ....:     for r in rs:
 ....:         if m(r) != me(r):
 ....:             print E.label(), r, m(r), me(r)
 }}}

 which gladly did not yield any output.

 So these patches are ready for review.
