That is not a bug, since v is an eigenvector iff -v is, even if you
want it normalised. If you mind whether some entries are positive,
just test and negate if necessary.

Hi
We're getting different results for an eigenvector in Sage 5.11 and Sage
5.12. We think 5.11 is the correct answer and 5.12 has flipped the values
to negative.
