------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Testing for surjectivity of a free module homorphism is probably just fine
 for vector spaces, but seems to be broken for modules.

 {{{
 sage: V = ZZ^2
 sage: m = matrix(ZZ, [[1,2],[0,2]])
 sage: phi = V.hom(m, V)
 sage: phi.lift(vector(ZZ, [0, 1]))
