It is in fact an error that I was not yet aware of. Actually a routine to
weed out unusable trial factors is too clever and even weeds out usable
factors.
I'm currently at a conference but will look closer at this bug as soon as
I'm back to Aachen.

'Factors' should return a list of the irreducible factors. I will send a
bugfix as soon as it is ready.
