 Replying to [comment:3 zimmerma]:

 indeed duplicates #2617) but

 defect:
 <snip>
 > When some solutions are lost, at least a warning should be issued.

 I don't think we can get that information out of maxima. Can someone more
 experienced in maxima comment on this? Or ask the maxima developers what
 they think about this problem?

 Another option is to take this as an opportunity to start implementing
 some native `solve()` functionality in Sage. I have no idea how to (more
 or less algorithmically) find a solution to this system though. I'd
 appreciate any pointers.
