Comment(by was):

 I've posted a patch that does the general case (up to degree 100) in a way
 that is refactored in a more usable way.  This is in
 trac_12356-extended.patch, which does *not* depend on trac_12356.patch.
 For refereeing there are basically two mathematical arguments that are
 used in the code:

   1. if a hilbert class polynomial F has a root in a field K of degree n,
 then the degree of F is at most n.

   2. {{{class_number(D) <= class_number(D*f^2)}}} for fundamental D and
 integer f.

 Of course, in 1, I think it would have to be a divisor of n, which could
 be used to optimize the code further.   I hope these two statements are
 correct.  I think I proved them to myself easily... but those are famous
 last words.
