But Integer has Ring so if you add 3 new functions to Complex2, 1, =
and characteristic() then both Integer and Complex2 can satisfy Ring.
I feared that the anonymous category or the "0: %" were the problem.
But now it is good to know that I should currently avoid the use of
anonymous categories if I want my code to run in Axiom.
Apparently the interpreter does not understand how to evaluate Aldor
anonymous categories.
I guess once Aldor becomes open source
According to
http://www.aldor.org/pipermail/aldor-l/2007-March/000620.html
we should have some news at the end of this week.
we could classify this as a bug. :-)
So if SPAD cannot handle anonymous categories and is seems it cannot

then this is a bug even without free Aldor.
