 Consider the following (Sage 4.7alpha1) :
 {{{
 sage: P.<a> = QQ[]
 sage: P.ideal([])
 Booom!
 }}}

 The issue is twofold: The ideal method in rings/rings.py is called and
 does not accept an empty list. But also the univariate polynomial rings
 should call a specialized method just like the multivariate ones do.

 I make this a block, as it worked in earlier versions (like 4.2 or so) and
 is a construction that easily comes up as a corner case.

 The patch attached solves the issue, but it is a patch created in 30
 seconds. I am sorry that I currently don't have time to deal with this.
