One of my interacts for class is segfaulting in 4.6, but worked fine in 4.5.2. The problem is illustrated below:

sage: V=(QQ^2).span_of_basis([[1,1]])
sage: v=V([1,1])
sage: x=sqrt(2)*v
sage: 3*x


------------------------------------------------------------
Unhandled SIGSEGV: A segmentation fault occurred in Sage.
This probably occurred because a *compiled* component
of Sage has a bug in it (typically accessing invalid memory)
or is not properly wrapped with _sig_on, _sig_off.
You might want to run Sage under gdb with 'sage -gdb' to debug this.
Sage will now terminate (sorry).
------------------------------------------------------------

I'm trying to track this down at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10250, and it seems to involve pynac and the coercion system. Does anyone have alpha versions of 4.6 (or 4.5.3, for that matter) that they can test the above code in so we can try to pinpoint what change caused the problem? The code above doesn't work for my copy of 4.6alpha3, for example.

Thanks,

Jason
