Found the problem: it's in SageObject.__repr__ (triggered by the formation 
of an error message in sage.rings.ring.is_field). I've pushed a solution to 
my nbruin/py3_compat, but I don't see how to solve this in a way that works 
on both py2 and py3.

We're going to have a lot of unicode problems ...

Another weird one occurs in

cdef class RealNumber(sage.structure.element.RingElement):
    ....
    def __hex__(self):
        ....
    hex = __hex__

On python3, this gives a runtime error:
NameError: name '__hex__' is not defined

so it looks like the order in which class initialization code is executed 
is different between py2 and py3. It would be good to know how to solve 
alias initialization in a py3 cdef class.
