Comment(by SimonKing):

 I found another bug in polynomial_zz_pex.pyx:
 {{{
 sage: K.<a>=GF(next_prime(2**60)**3)
 sage: R.<x> = PolynomialRing(K,implementation='NTL')
 sage: R([3,x])
 ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input
 The following traceback may be corrupted or invalid
 The error message is: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (1154, 0))
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 TypeError: polynomial() takes exactly one argument (0 given)
 }}}

 I suggest to not only catch an attribute error (namely when requesting
 `e.polynomial()`) but also a type error.

 And my preference is to do try a conversion, before raising an error on a
 failing coercion. If that sounds reasonable to you then I'll submit an
 update of my patch.
