Comment (by ppurka):

 Should this be explicitly provided in the documentation of `solve` as a
 warning? It seems natural that someone could try to use variables from a
 polynomial ring and work with them. After all, they are "variables."

 I have something like this in mind:
 {{{
 .. warning:

     Provide only symbolic variables to the ``solve`` function, that is,
     variables obtained by using the :func:`var`. Other variables, for
 instance
     variables obtained from polynomial rings, should not be provided to
 the
     ``solve`` function.
 }}}

 what other variables can be defined in Sage, by the way?
