Comment:

 1. There should always be an example of the bug you are fixing in the
 patch, always always always. We need a mug shot, so the bug doesn't show
 its face again :) I added this, as well as several other tests, which have
 exposed other corner case bugs, such as:
 {{{
 sage: g = Graph(20)
 sage: vertex_coloring(g, hex_colors=True)
 {'#ff0000': 0}
 }}}
 I've fixed these.

 2. It seems to take some time to add constraints to the problem, which is
 pointless if no solver is installed. Can you add a patch that runs a
 trivial test before setting up the problem, to see if it is installed?
