#4502 requires an updated scipy, but Jason suggests a hack of checking  
the scipy determinant for zero before inverting (the Sage-supplied  
determinant tests out between 10e-17 and 10e-16).  I'm not a doctest  
maven, so I'm not sure how to handle such a doctest.  Is there doc for  
controlling doctests?

#4472 seems simple enough: just replace low-order digits with '.' (a  
handy tool, the '.'-key :-}).  I picked 4 digits for each untouched  
value (which worked).

Thanks for pointers!
