I don't understand. Why should integrate(1/(x^8-1),x) and
integrate(8*sqrt(2)/(x^8-1),x) be so different?
If you want to get 'rootSum', you probably will get complex
result.

On the other hand, in "x^4 + r", if we know that "r" is a quartic,
then no more extra roots will be introduced, I think.

Just compare current result and following reuslt.

(1) -> integrate(a/(x^8-1),x)

   (1)
                 +-+    2          +-+               +-+
       - a log(x\|2  + x  + 1) - a\|2 log(x + 1) + a\|2 log(x - 1)
     +
                 +-+    2                  +-+                  +-+
       a log(- x\|2  + x  + 1) - 2a atan(x\|2  + 1) - 2a atan(x\|2  - 1)
     +
            +-+
       - 2a\|2 atan(x)
  /
       +-+
     8\|2
