Comment:

 This one looks different now:
 {{{
 sage: sage: var('a d')
 (a, d)
 sage: sage: A = matrix([[a,0],[1,d]])
 sage: sage: A.eigenvalues()
 [d, a]
 sage: sage: A.jordan_form()
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ValueError                                Traceback (most recent call
 last)
 <ipython-input-8-708dc91119f4> in <module>()
 ----> 1 A.jordan_form()

 /home/darij/sage-5.11.beta3/local/lib/python2.7/site-
 packages/sage/matrix/matrix2.so in sage.matrix.matrix2.Matrix.jordan_form
 (sage/matrix/matrix2.c:44267)()

 ValueError: Jordan normal form not implemented over inexact rings.
 }}}

 I agree that the symbolic ring is inexact, and that Jordan normal form
 requires exactness...
