problem with polredabs and temporary variables |
I ran across a problem using polredabs and temporary variables. The polredabs0 function (actually the nilord function, which is called indirectly by polredabs0) creates a new temporary variable and assumes that it is lower priority than the variable of the input polynomial. Ordinarily this works fine, but it fails if you're using the library interface and call the function with your own temporary-variable polynomial. It's probably not worth fixing this problem...it looks like that would be a major rewrite. Is it worth adding a warning about this type of problem to the "temporary variables" section of the manual?
