Comment(by cremona):

 Looks good to me.  Sorry about the regression which was my fault.  I
 needed an integer in the same square class as a (and b) and did the
 obvious thing without thinking about the conseqences regarding
 factorization.

 Would it be better to check for integrality, since if a and b are integral
 then using ZZ(a), ZZ(b) would save the conversion to rational and back?
 i.e. do something like try: a=ZZ(a); b=ZZ(b) first.
