Comment:
AFAICT, `solve` returns a list of possible solutions to the given
equality. When the `solution_dict` parameter is `True`, this list is
populated by dictionaries instead of symbolic relations.
With this reasoning the current behavior of returning an empty list if we
can't find any solutions even if the `solution_dict` parameter is `True`
seems correct to me.
IMHO, the only thing that needs to be fixed is the `IndexError` when there
is no solution. Comments?
