bug in the way vectors are created for submodules of free modules

Description (last modified by jdemeyer)

Let R be a ring with fraction field K.

When you create a R-submodule of K^n (with K!=QQ) the vectors 
are created in the ring R not the fraction field.  This breaks things 
when the submodule is not in R^n.

Fixed by #11751.

  • Type changed from PLEASE CHANGE to defect

The new version adds a doctest (and is slightly modified to make the doctest work).

The only doctest failure I received was related to the startup time as checked by startup.py. Curiously enough, replicating the same test on my local machine returned True. (Replicating as in: not running the doctest itself as it always returns True when not on sage.math.)

But there was some stupid duplicate of work so there is another ticket wich fixes the same problem at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/11751 so if that one gets positive review and merged we can close this one.

Since #11751 received a positive review and was merged in 4.7.2, maybe this ticket can be closed? (I also checked the test in the docstring of this patch and it passes in Sage 5.0.)

I can confirm that your examples work fine in sage-5.0. So this can be closed. The proper way to do that is "positive review".
