Comment (by was):

 The output of mathematica.eval (or in general FOO.eval) must be the string
 that *system* outputs. There is absolutely no reason any coercion, e.g.,
 CC(FOO.eval(...)) should ever work.  This ticket as is is definitely
 invalid.

 However, it is fair game to want to make something like CC(FOO(...)) work.
 Note that there is no eval.  So this is the only thing that should work:
 {{{
 sage: CC(mathematica('N[BesselK[1+I, 2+ 3*I], 20]'))
 }}}
 Unfortunately, due to stuff not being implemented, this doesn't work
 either.
 Another thing that should work is
 {{{
 sage: a = mathematica('N[BesselK[1+I, 2+ 3*I], 20]')
 sage: CC((a.Re(), a.Im()))
 }}}
 It doesn't, because of #4330.
