If I define a polynomial f=(x^4+x^2+1)^2
and find the roots via f.roots() I get four roots each with multiplicity one. However, (f^2).roots() yields exactly the same answer: four roots with multiplicity one(!) each. If f is a "simpler" polynomial, such as f=x^4+1, a correct multiplicity is reported.
