Hi David,

thanks for looking at the code! My reply to you concern below.

I am not sure about this. I would expect that subsets of two
different
groups are never equal because equality of sets should check for
the parents of the elements:

sage: G = SymmetricGroup(3)
sage: H = SymmetricGroup(4)
sage: L1 = Set([G((1,2)), G((1,3))])
sage: L1
{(1,2), (1,3)}
sage: L2 = Set([H((1,2)), H((1,3))])
sage: L2
{(1,2), (1,3)}
sage: L1 == L2
False

but I don't know if the situation might be different in some weird
situation.
Anyway, if this nags you too much I can replace the test to include
parent checking
(although the example above suggest that it shouldn't be necessary).

Any idea on what is causing the Testsuit to fail, even if the doctests
pass?

Cheers,
Javier
