I just found out that what I previously reported as a problem with the 
TeXmacs interface also occurs
in "plain" FriCAS:

$ fricas
Checking for foreign routines
FRICAS="/usr/local/lib/fricas/target/amd64-portbld-freebsd12.1"
spad-lib="/usr/local/lib/fricas/target/amd64-portbld-freebsd12.1/lib/libspad.so"
foreign routines found
openServer result 0

                            Version: FriCAS 1.3.6

(1) -> f(x) == c*x^2
                                                                   Type: 
Void
(2) ->f(α))
  Line   1: f(α)
           .A.BC
  Error  A: Missing mate.
  Error  B: syntax error at top level
  Error  B: Possibly missing a ) 
  Error  C: The character #\PLUS-MINUS_SIGN is not an FriCAS character.
   4 error(s) parsing 


Note that the double right parentheses on line (2) are not a typing error 
by me, but are somehow 
echoed back by the system itself when I type 'f(α)'.
