Comment(by was):

 The following should be using xreadlines, to save memory:
 {{{
 for line in file('src/allcurves.00000-09999').readlines():
 }}}


 This optional test in cremona.py is bad, since it will always fail when
 the optional package is installed.
 {{{
         sage: c = CremonaDatabase()
         sage: isinstance(c, sage.databases.cremona.MiniCremonaDatabase)
         True
         sage: isinstance(c, sage.databases.cremona.LargeCremonaDatabase)
 # optional - database_cremona_ellcurve
         True
 }}}
 Also, the name of the optional component is totally wrong -- it should be
 elliptic_curves, which is the name of the spkg:

 {{{
 sage-4.8/spkg/standard/elliptic_curves-0.3.spkg
 }}}

 Anyway, trac #11587 unfortunately introduced many issues.  Let's fix them
 asap for 5.0!
