algdep() regression 

Hi,

\\ pari-2.2.4:

? algdep(2^46,1)
x - 70368744177664

\\ pari-2.2.5

? algdep(2^46,1)
1

Manual does warn about a possibility of an infinite loop, but not a
completely bogus result.  I can still trick it into giving a correct
answer by doing

algdep(precision(2^46.,29),1)

but that shouldn't be necessary (I think?).

Thanks

Igor
