Hi all:

I ran into an error trying to evaluate the exponential function at an
algebraic number.  Looks like there's a bug in substituting algebraic
numbers for variables; see below.  While i was at it, i tried creating
the expression QQbar(sqrt(2))*x and got a not implemented error.
Wasn't symbolics with QQbar working in previous versions of Sage, or
am i mistaken?

Alex
