[Bonmin] Errors in grad_f (and jac_g) according to Ipopt

Hi,
For the derive test I don't really know. I tried with the current  
trunk and it does not find any error in the derivatives (I tried with  
an Ampl model). Are the error found by the derivative checker large?

I fixed the sqrt(5) issue in both trunk and stable.

Thanks,
Pierre
