I'm using version 3.4 - this probably explains it!
thanks

M.units() will give a set of units which are a Z-basis for the units
modulo roots of unity. There is no canonical basis, so there's no
reason why (even if the unit ranks are the same) you should get the
same generators.
For more functionality with units construct U=X.unit_group() and look
at

R.t=L[]
M.c=L.extension(t^2+1)
(this gets M)
X.d=M.absolute_field()
