On my M2 pro 2023 mac mini, gambit-enumpoly only returns 8 equilibria for 2x2x2.nfg:

There are two equilibria with full support. However, on my older MacBook Pro (2017, Intel Core i5), I get the correct output, with two equilibria with full support.

This discrepancy appears to date back quite some time.

Preliminary speculation is that this will have to do with tolerances, as previously in the development of gambit-enumpoly we noted some irregularities with how tolerances were operating.
