 It seems that the interface to Singular has a bug,
 see example:
 {{{
 sage: K0=GF(11)
 sage: #K0=QQ
 sage: R0.<b>=K0[]
 sage: K.<b>=K0.extension(b^5+4)
 sage: R1.<zzz>=K[]
 sage: L=FractionField(R1)
 sage: R.<x>=L[]
 sage: f=x^4+1/(b*zzz)
 True
 sage: f._singular_()  #  where is the fraction 1/(b*zzz)  ?
 x^4
 sage: g = R(x^4)
 sage: f==g
 False

 }}}

 Note that already
 {{{
 sage: (1/(b*zzz))._singular_()
 0
 }}}

 Remarkable is that {{{f = x^4+1/(b)*(1/zzz) }}} is correctly translated to
 Singular:
 {{{
 sage: K0=GF(11)
 sage: #K0=QQ
 sage: R0.<b>=K0[]
 sage: K.<b>=K0.extension(b^5+4)
 sage: R1.<zzz>=K[]
 sage: L=FractionField(R1)
 sage: R.<x>=L[]
 sage: f=x^4+1/(b)*(1/zzz)
 sage: f._singular_()
 -1/(4*zzz)*b^4+x^4
 sage: g = -1/(4*zzz)*b^4+x^4
 sage: f == g
 True
 }}}

 Please check  if there is a similar issue in other rings than in the
 example above.

 @Simon, @Martin:
 should I Ccing someone else or remove you from Cc?
