Comment(by SimonKing):

 I think the problem boils down to two problems:

  1. Laurent series have no attribute ``exp``, unlike power series.

  2. In some situations, there still occurs a formal fraction field when it
 should be a Laurent series ring. The result is an attribute error.

 For the first situation, I suggest to implement ``exp`` for Laurent series
 of non-negative valuation (using exp of the underlying power series). For
 the second situation, I have to analyse what goes wrong.
