Sorry, I never before knew that sage has a patching mechanism. I did give it a try, and verified that the patch was indeed installed and rebuilt. Unfortunately, it doesn't clear up my problem. My impression is that force = True causes sage to pass the string along to Singular if something goes wrong in the parsing process, but does not short-circuit the parsing itself. It turns out the Singular "dp" order is an example of the kind of order I need, and of course "dp" gets passed from Sage to Singular unmolested. This means I can make some immediate progress, and postpone looking at other orders for the moment. Thanks for all your help.
