Comment:

 The error occurs because PolyBori -- when eliminating some variables from
 the system -- attempts to create a ring with zero variables. This also
 explains why your second system works.

 I removed that check from our wrapper, but that doesn't only makes the
 code fail later. Michael, should PolyBoRi support rings with zero
 variables or not? In either case I think this is a bug in the upstream
 code.

 In the process of looking into this I noticed that the error message was
 wrong. I fixed that in the attached patch.

 PS: The author field is used to indicate who wrote the patch to fix the
 issue.
