Comment (by zabrocki):

 I want to get this bug resolved too.  The bug in #13413 sent me into a bit
 of panic because I realized that very few calculations using the symmetric
 function package weren't questionable (sorry for the double negative).  I
 now have slightly more confidence in symmetric function calculations, but
 only a little more than before.

 I started reading Matheiu's comment carefully and he states : "the problem
 appears at size 47".  However I ran his program on my computer (OS 10.8.5
 with 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7 processor) and on a mac in my office with
 copies of sage that had #13413 applied and not.  The error seemed to
 appear somewhere between degree 47 and 51 depending on some non-
 deterministic effect.  Mostly it was starting at 48.
