Comment:

 It's not a bug it's a feature :)

 From the documentation of !PolynomialRing:

 {{{
 ``PolynomialRing(base_ring, name, sparse=False)`` returns a univariate
 polynomial ring; also, PolynomialRing(base_ring, names, sparse=False)
 yields a univariate polynomial ring, if names is a list or tuple providing
 exactly one name. All other input formats return a multivariate polynomial
 ring.
 }}}
