Provided the modulus has no small prime divisors, I don't see anything wrong
with serreverse with intmod coefficients.

If it has, lift and use p-adic coefficients insteads: multiply by (1+O(p^n))
for a suitable n: 1 + ceil( log_p(number of significant terms ) )  should be
enough [untested].

Hope this helps,
