       Type:  defect     |           Status:  new

 We have the following behaviour:
 {{{
 sage: var('s')
 s
 sage: (x^s).series(x, 0)
 Order(1)
 sage: (x^s).series(x, 1)
 (0^s) + Order(x)
 sage: (x^s).series(x, 2)
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ValueError                                Traceback (most recent call
 last)
 <ipython-input-4-5abc79662303> in <module>()
 ----> 1 (x**s).series(x, Integer(2))

 /usr/opt/sage-6.1.1/local/lib/python2.7/site-
 packages/sage/symbolic/expression.so in
 sage.symbolic.expression.Expression.series
 (sage/symbolic/expression.cpp:17596)()

 ValueError: power::eval(): division by zero
 }}}
 This output is weird and definitely wrong (since the correct output
 depends strongly on {{{s}}}.).
