By the way, I should point out that Maxima folks probably won't consider
this a bug, for the same reasons as discussed in the past on other
tickets. But if we don't want this, we'll have to figure out how to deal
with this.
> Except this was not exposed before, apparently - it is the case in older
Sage as well. This is due to #12780.
I've also posted a comment there, hopefully mjo or someone else will
respond.
