This is a hack (especially since I'm no mathematician and no expert in
Sage or any of its components), but it seems to work.  A formal proof
would be an interesting read.

Here's an example:

n = 10
m = matrix(ZZ,n)
m[range(n-1),range(n-1)] = identity_matrix(n-1)
m_subd = m.LLL()

Works with some large n I played with.
