Overflow in echoing large numbers from coefficient rings

[dreyer]

Hi! Large numbers from Z/2^{n are not printed correctly:}

We can see from the last two commands that number stores the information (here 2^32) correctly. Just the output goes wrong (overflow?),

Even worse: Singular forgets "+" between terms in some case:

> ring r = (integer, 2, 49), (var_1, var_10), lp;
> poly p = 131072*(-536870912 * var_1  -1073741824 * var_10);
> p;
0*var_10*var_10

So the output pretends that var_10}} exists twice. Note that Singular 3-1-0 (Mar 2009) prints {{{-0*var_1-0*var_10 in this case. (But it already had problems with the output of large numbers).

output routine is fixed, I hope that this but is only an output problem

[dreyer]

I can confirm that the fix also works for the real-world example, that motivated the ticket originally.
