Summary: newton & listconstvars

Initial Comment:
I think newton should set listconstvars to false:

(%i22) newton(x^2 - %i, 1 - %i/2), listconstvars : true;
(%o22) x^2

(%i23) newton(x^2 - %i, 1 - %i/2), listconstvars : false;
(%o23) 7.071067828336269b-1*%i+7.071067804126268b-1

Or maybe newton should require a var argument.
