Hi, Many many thanks for reporting this and even more thanks for tracking down a fix. I've added it to the trac server so it'll definitely get done: http://sage.math.washington.edu:9002/sage_trac/ticket/152
Also, your report has been forwarded to the Givaro developers, who will probably ignore it as usual... However, that's OK, since we'll distribute the fix with SAGE.
