 I agree.
 I also don't really feel satisfied with the way all these polynomials are
 stored right now, but I'm not sure I'll come up with anything quickly.

 a mistake in one of the algorithms in the article of Heath and Loehr cited
 in the code.  We should check that the error is not in this patch.

 I think it's fixed in David's implementation.
 That's what got me confused at
 http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/8335#comment:55 because I thought the
 addition David made were not needed, and then i realized they were:
