#4273: Failure on Jordan form transformation matrices
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  mhampton        |       Owner:  was                
     Type:  defect          |      Status:  new                
 Priority:  critical        |   Milestone:  sage-3.1.3         
Component:  linear algebra  |    Keywords:  jordan form, matrix
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Getting the change of basis matrix for Jordan forms fails if there are
 multiple blocks with the same eigenvalue, e.g.:
 {{{
 m = matrix(QQ,[[0,1,0], [0,0,0], [0,0,0]])
 m.jordan_form(base_ring=QQ, transformation=True)
 }}}
 gives
 {{{
 ValueError: cannot compute the basis of the Jordan block of size 2 with
 eigenvalue 0
 }}}
 This was reported on sage-support by Rob Beezer, subject line is:
 "Transformation to Jordan form for tame 6x6 integer matrix".
