Comment(by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:6 was]:
 > It also programs around the issue with help files, which is *not* fixed
 in Singular-3-1-0... and I'm not at all clear *why* it is considered a bug
 in Singular by the people in the thread above.

 Note that I originally thought that the issue with help files is a problem
 of Singular, and clearly a bug: I mean, you ask for the version number and
 get an error; you ask again, and it works! It had reported it upstream.

 But then the impression came across (see my last post) that it only occurs
 in Singular if it is built by Sage. In this case, it could be a problem
 with the patched version in Sage, which might be worth another ticket.

 Cheers,
 Simon
