Groups

• An inefficiency when creating large elementary abelian groups via the AbelianGroup command has been rectified. Problem reported by Mark Stather.

Number and Function Fields

• A bug in the maximal order computation where the discriminant is given as input as been fixed. This would never produce wrong results, but could produce interal errors. Affected functions include MaximalOrder and SplittingField.
