I seem to have discovered an error with the wrapper to the GAP
function SylowSubgroup.

sage: n = 3^2 * 7^2
sage: G = CyclicPermutationGroup(n)

So far, so good. However,

sage: G.sylow_subgroup(3)

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

That's exactly how the error shows up in the console. A similar error
occurs when trying to find the Sylow 7-subgroup. However, the
following works fine:

sage: H = CyclicPermutationGroup(2^2 * 3^2)
sage: H.sylow_subgroup(2)
Permutation Group with generators [(1,10,19,28)(2,11,20,29)(3,12,21,30)
(4,13,22,31)(5,14,23,32)(6,15,24,33)(7,16,25,34)(8,17,26,35)
(9,18,27,36), (1,19)(2,20)(3,21)(4,22)(5,23)(6,24)(7,25)(8,26)(9,27)
(10,28)(11,29)(12,30)(13,31)(14,32)(15,33)(16,34)(17,35)(18,36)]
