solve() problem since new ROM update

I have tried multiple problems (simple ones albiet) to solve while in
ALG mode.
SOLVE(x^4 - 1 = 3, x)
but this provides no result. Just returns the question with no answer.
The answer should be x = -Sqrt(2) or x = sqrt(2).

The example works in RPN, but I use both environments depending what I
am doing. It worked before the upgrade. 
Am I missing something here!
