Comment(by SimonKing):

 In most cases, the problems seem to come from using {{{f/g}}} on power
 series in situations where {{{g}}} is of valuation zero. This used to
 return a power series, which I consider the wrong answer (it should be a
 Laurent series). Now, if one wants {{{f/g}}} as a power series, one should
 use {{{f * ~g}}} instead.

 I am now confident that I'll soon be able to submit another patch that
 resolves it.
