Comment (by SimonKing):

 Here is one particularly nasty thing. I stored some objects involved in
 errors. Reloading them, I find the following in a patched version (as
 suggested above):
 {{{
 sage: A = load("/home/king/SAGE/work/categories/modformA")
 sage: B = load("/home/king/SAGE/work/categories/modformB")
 sage: A
 Modular Symbols space of dimension 3 and level 5, weight 7, character [i],
 sign 1, over Number Field in c with defining polynomial x^2 - 402*i over
 its base field
 sage: B
 Modular Symbols space of dimension 3 and level 5, weight 7, character [i],
 sign 1, over Number Field in i with defining polynomial x^2 + 1
 sage: A.boundary_space().dimension()
 0
 sage: K.<i> = QuadraticField(-1)
 sage: x = polygen(K); L.<c> = K.extension(x^2 - 402*i)
 sage: chi = DirichletGroup(5, K).gen(0)
 sage: N = Newforms(chi, 7, base_ring = L)
 sage: Newforms(chi, 7, names='a')
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 TypeError: Unable to coerce x (=[-1]
 [-1]
 [-1]) to a morphism in Set of Morphisms from Modular Symbols space of
 dimension 3 and level 5, weight 7, character [i], sign 1, over Number

 space of level 5, weight 7, character [i] and dimension 1 over Number
 Field in c with defining polynomial x^2 - 402*i over its base field in
 Category of commutative additive groups
 sage: A.boundary_space().dimension()
 1
 }}}
 Hence, `A.boundary_space()` used to be of dimension zero, but during the
 computation, it is turned into dimension one!

 That does not happen without the patch:
 {{{
 sage: A = load("/home/king/SAGE/work/categories/modformA")
 sage: B = load("/home/king/SAGE/work/categories/modformB")
 sage: A.boundary_space().dimension()
 0
 sage: K.<i> = QuadraticField(-1)
 sage: x = polygen(K); L.<c> = K.extension(x^2 - 402*i)
 sage: chi = DirichletGroup(5, K).gen(0)
 sage: N = Newforms(chi, 7, base_ring = L)
 sage: Newforms(chi, 7, names='a')
 [q + a0*q^2 + (i*a0 - 5*i + 5)*q^3 + ((-5*i - 5)*a0 + 24*i)*q^4 + ((10*i -
 5)*a0 - 40*i - 55)*q^5 + O(q^6)]
 sage: A.boundary_space().dimension()
 0
 }}}

 Further digging reveals: `A.boundary_space().dimension()` is indeed
 ''not'' constant! It relies on a list of known generators, that may grow.
 But with my patch, the homset assumes that the dimensions are constant.
 Bad me.
