Comment:

 My patch completely avoids the string replacement.

 If a variable name is given, it replaces
 `self.parent()._finite_field_ext_pari_modulus_as_str()` by
 `repr(self.parent().modulus()._pari_with_name(var))`, and
 `self.polynomial()` allows to change the variable name as well, so, I use
 `self.polynomial(var)` instead.

 Of course I added a test, and the tests of
 `sage/rings/finite_rings/element_givaro.pyx` pass. I didn't run full
 tests, yet, but I think it is ready for review.
