I was looking at a hypersurface in projective 3 space, so I did

sage: PP.<x,y,z,w> = ProjectiveSpace(3,QQ)

and then defined a homogeneous polynomial f in x,y,z,w.
I wanted to find the singularities, so I did

sage: I = [f] + [f.derivative(zz) for zz in PP.gens()]
sage: V = PP.subscheme(I)

and then asked for the irreducible components of V.  However, one of
them was listed as

Closed subscheme of Projective Space of dimension 3 over Rational
Field
defined by:
  x,
  y,
  z,
  w

This seems wrong -- after all we're working in projective space.
