Comment (by kcrisman):

 It should be pointed out that:

 1. Changing the left endpoint from 0.0001415 to 0.0001414 caused the error
 in this case. Mysteriously, doing the endpoint 0.0001415 in
 maxima_console() still has two questions for you, but Sage nonetheless
 answers it!

 2. assume((y-1)*(y+1)>0) or whatever doesn't work -  and even if it did,
 Maxima does have an actual bug in not recognizing that x is positive from
 the integral we wanted to calculate.  So a question-and-answer framework,
 while definitely helpful, wouldn't solve this particular issue.
