Comment(by john_perry):

 Martin,

 Sorry for the late reply, but according to Lazard's paper, the algorithm I
 used ("Triangular") does NOT need a lexicographic term ordering. On p.
 124, beginning of Section 6:

 ''These algorithms do not depend explicitly on the ordering; however, they
 are mainly designed for degree orderings for which the base is more easily
 obtained; they work also for lexicographic ordering, but, for them, we
 dispose of a structure theorem which permit us to provide a better
 algorithm (section 8).''

 The algorithm I implemented was Triangular (line 6). So the switch the
 lexicographic is unnecessary.

 I don't know how to fix the problem with complex coefficients, though.
