 The function that lists the points on a hyperelliptic curve assumes that
 the point [0, 1, 0] is always valid. This is wrong and creates the
 following bug:
 {{{
 sage: R.<x> = GF(67)[]
 sage: H = HyperellipticCurve(24*x^2 + 33*x + 43)
 sage: H.points()
 ...
 TypeError: Coordinates [0, 1, 0] do not define a point on Hyperelliptic
 Curve over Finite Field of size 67 defined by y^2 = 24*x^2 + 33*x + 43
 }}}
