sage: matrix([[1,1,-2,1,1,-2],[-2,1,1,-2,1,1],[1,-2,1,1,-2,1]])
[ 1  1 -2  1  1 -2]
[-2  1  1 -2  1  1]
[ 1 -2  1  1 -2  1]
sage: M = _
sage: M
<bound method NullTranslations.ugettext of <gettext.NullTranslations
instance at 0x10eacf8c0>>

I thought that not so long ago _ was a reference to the object in the
previous thing, but now apparently (I don't know what NullTranslations
is, but I'm guessing) when _repr_ is called I get _ to be whatever the
return value of its output is (?).

As a result, _ becomes substantially less useful.  If I had remembered
to do

sage: M = matrix([[1,1,-2,1,1,-2],[-2,1,1,-2,1,1],[1,-2,1,1,-2,1]])

I would have done so in the first place, but _ is often the easiest
way to save me from my memory (and yes, I realize the command history
can help too but _ was the *most* easy way to do it).

Any ideas on whether I'm doing something wrong?  Or, how to get my old
behavior back (if it indeed ever existed...)?

Thanks,
