solve(x^2-1,x),numer => [x=%E^(3.14*%i), x=%E^(6.28*%i)] same for solve(x^2-1.0,x),numer;
Why????
Mysteriously,
solve(x^2.0-1.0,x),numer => [x=1.0]

5.9.3cvs / sbcl, clisp, gcl (all Linux) yield
solve(x^2-1,x),numer; => [x = 1.2246063538223773E-16 (%i - 8165889364191922), x = - 2.4492127076447545E-16 (%i - 4082944682095961)]
so the reported spurious polarform seems to have gone away.
Mark this report for verification on Windows -- if not observed there we can close this report.
I'm informed by Stavros that the polarform is not observed on Windows, too. Closing this report as fixed.
