Comment:

 Compare Example 3.2.5 of Helmut A. Hamm, "Differential forms and Hodge
 numbers for toric complete intersections" ( http://arxiv.org/abs/1106.1826
 ).  That example gives a hypersurface that is not non-degenerate.  It's
 worked out in a patch, but I think the following test with a homogeneous
 polynomial is equivalent:

 {{{

 X = toric_varieties.WP([1,4,2,3], names='z0 z1 z2 z3')

 X.inject_variables()

 g0 =z1^3 + z2^6 +z3^4

 g = g0-2*z2^3*z0^6+z2*z0^10+z0^12

 hyp = X.subscheme([g])
 }}}


 Right now, hyp.is_nondegenerate() returns True, but Hamm says it should
 return False.  The problem may be that the current code only checks at
 top-dimensional cones, rather than checking at all cones in the fan?
