Hi Martin,

maybe the error is on my side, but already in my previous mail wrt

   \begin{mrx}
     10-Feb-2007: unfortunately, without the following chunk \xAxiom{}
     complains:
     \begin{adsnippet}

Looking in PrimitiveArray(FormalPowerSeries(

   \end{mrx}

I wanted to say something like "I could have understood if 'sum' was 
missing", but looking at the dvi I realised that 'sum' is not a 
conditional export. I thought I'd made it conditional.

Yes, I made it conditional. But I now realise that I forgot to 
unconditionalise it. So OK with respect to "sum".

But how come that you unconditionalise "differentiate"?
If you look at

<<implementation: FormalPowerSeries>>=
if R has with {*: (Integer, %) -> %} then {
         <<implementation: FormalPowerSeries differentiate>>
}
@

you see that FormalPowerSeries only implements "differentiate" if there 
is an appropriate function *. But the exports of FormalPowerSeries are 
FormalPowerSeriesCategory and there "differentiate" now appears without 
condition. So if R has not an appropriate * function then 
"differentiate" is not implemented for FormalPowerSeries(R) and a that 
probably leads to a segfault.

Could you please check via the mailing list whether I might have some 
reason to conditionalise that function. You could even criticise me by 
telling me that I never give a (good) reason for the condition. But now 
we have a bug in AC.

Ralf
