Comment (by whuss):

 I wanted to remove the factorial in rings.arith completely, because I
 think it is confusing
 to have to different factorial functions at the toplevel. Also Sage
 doesn't do this for the
 other symbolic functions like sin().

 In the previous version rings.arith.factorial_numeric() was just there
 because I had not yet
 solved the problem of circular imports at Sage startup.

 Now second patch that I just uploaded fixes this problem. Now there is
 only the factorial
 in calculus.all.

 With both patches applied to sage-3.2alpha1 all doctests pass for me.
