The following patch corrects this problem:
Before the patch f101 := (x*z - z*x)^2 - 2 was immediately recognized as irreducible. With the patch I did not get answer for several minutes (may be I am not patient enough?). Similarly f102 := (x*z + z*x)^2 - 2 and f103 := (x^2 + x + z)^2 - 2 -- Waldek Hebisch -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
