Looking at the discussion, especially when I saw Gray code, I wondered whether the techniques we used to multiply polynomials over GF(2) might be useful too. See <http://hal.inria.fr/inria-00188261/en>.
My initial interest was modular composition: Brent and Kung's 1978 Algo 2.1 enables one to perform a fast modular composition using fast matrix multiplication. In turn, modular composition enables to improve polynomial factorisation or irreducibility tests. Do you know if Sage implements modular composition, i.e, f(g) mod h over GF(p)[x]?
