The upstream quadratic sieve in FLINT is not a drop in replacement as is since it makes certain assumptions about small factors no exiting [I might be wrong on the details about the assumptions, so Bill H. please correct me]. It is planned to clean up the Sage interface and then get rid of the stand alone flintqs package [the new code is faster!], so volunteers? >Inclusion of linbox_wrap would be nice as I wouldn't have to get > sage sage's linbox spkg just for linbox_wrap.
