Comment (by kedlaya):

 Agreed that this is an upstream bug, but we may be able to avoid it simply
 by requesting more working precision:
 {{{
 ? \p20
    realprecision = 38 significant digits (20 digits displayed)
 ? polroots((x+1)^2*(x-1)^7*(x^2-x+1)^5*1.0)
 %4 = [-1.0000000000000000000 + 0.E-38*I, -1.0000000000000000000 +
