additional issue is that Brent method doesn't take in to account initial
guess.
when you call Brent solveImpl method through solver1d.solve with guess as
one of the arguments, root_ is set to this value in solve() but just after
entering solveImpl() it is changed back to root_=xMax_ without any checking
whether guess is correct.
in this scenario I think there is also need to call f(root_) before
returning solution.

Piotr
