New issue 1387 by asmeurer: solve(x+sqrt(x)-2,x)  returns wrong solution
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1387

I was adding some tests from Issue 694  
(http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?
can=2&start=0&num=100&q=&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Milestone%20Owner%
20Summary&sort=&id=694), when I got to test M21: solve(x+sqrt(x)-2,x)
The solution is x=1, but SymPy returns [1,4].  The source of this is easy  
to see, as the solution of solve(x-sqrt(x)-2,x) is x=4, so SymPy is failing  
to recognize that sqrt(x) is the principle square root
only.
