New description:
`ComplexField_class._element_constructor_` calls `x.parent().polynomial()`
when `isinstance(x, NumberFieldElement_quadratic)`, but not all objects of
class `NumberFieldElement_quadratic` have a number field as a parent. As a
consequence, the following conversion (that I guess really should work,
since it is suggested by `pushout()`) fails.

Comment:
Hmm, the example I gave in the original ticket is not correct, since it
sets up an embedding into `SR`. But the same issue occurs with an
embedding into `CC`. I updated the description to reflect that.
I ''think'' the linked patches solve the problem, but I have no idea if
the "spirit" of the fix is right. So it would be great if someone who
understands the coercion system could have a look!
