Comment(by zimmerma):

 two minor points:

 (1) the comment {{{Cache the result}}} on line 1465 should be in fact on
 line 1470. The code at
 line 1465 only initializes an empty cache.

 (2) it seems to me that if charpoly is called with the same matrix but
 different variables, the computation is done twice, whereas it would
 suffice to substitute the first variable by the second one, no? Maybe this
 can be in a separate ticket.
