I have two open tickets related to symbolics, and sadly the new
symbolics hasn't magically fixed either. :(

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/4142

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/3863

I don't know enough about the pynac symbolics to try fixing this, but if
anyone is looking for more test cases...
