This is not a Singular bug but a bug in code wrote, I have a fix almost ready. However, I ran into this Singular bug when looking at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7795 > ring r = 3,(T,z),dp; > poly f = z^3 + T*z; > f^(3^15); Segmentation fault It doesn't seem to be a simple "catch the overflow" bug. Any ideas?
