Thanks for the long answer! I'm using cvs version of axiom of savannah
if that matters. So I couldn't try out the package solution, yet...

should be FRAC POLY INT instead of POLY FRAC INT - at least it works
then...
Now, the second question regarding that problem...
We shall implement derivation rules via rules. First intention is:
ablrules := rule abl(a+b,c) == abl(a,c) + abl(b,c)
but axiom evaluates abl(a+b,c) to zero and makes a rule 0 ->
abl()+abl(). Simple ...rule 'abl(... does not work because of wrong
type...
