There are two problems here, actually.  One is that we return something we 
can't really evaluate with this "jacobi_sn" - such a function is not 
defined in Sage, only the jacobi('sn', ...)  The other is the one you 
comment on.  It managed to completely drain my Sage instance - I had to 
close the terminal!

I don't have access to a Maxima instance right now - can someone try to 
recreate this there?  My guess is that it's there, since MaximaFunction 
would use stuff 
at 
http://hg.sagemath.org/sage-main/file/d06cf4b2215d/sage/functions/special.py#l485
 
to do this.  Maybe
