Follow-up Comment #8, bug #42742 (project octave):

While it is tempting to just think of a hack to prevent
r(1) == 0 leading to error, the comment in the doc:

     *Caution:* This is a numerically unstable algorithm and should not
     be used on large polynomials.

is worth noting.  It would be a good idea to review
some current literature and find a more robust algorithm.
