Comment (by pbruin):

 The problematic doctest is the following one from
 `sage/misc/functional.py`:
 {{{
 sage: f = exp(-x) * sinh(sqrt(x))
 sage: t = integrate(f, x, 0, Infinity)
 }}}
 With an unpatched Sage 6.2 this does finish, but takes a very long time
 (2-3 minutes).  The same situation occurs for
 {{{
 sage: maxima('integrate(exp(-x)*sinh(sqrt(x)), x, 0, inf);')
 }}}

 This is surprising given that the following takes less than a second in
 Maxima (both the one that comes with Sage and a standalone copy, and both
 versions 5.29.1 and 5.33.0):
 {{{
 (%i1) integrate(exp(-x)*sinh(sqrt(x)), x, 0, inf);
 (%o1)
     1/4                                              1
   %e    (2 gamma_incomplete(1, 1) - gamma_incomplete(-, 1) - sqrt(%pi) -
 2)
                                                      2
 -
 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                       4
                                     1/4                  1
      1/4                          %e    gamma_incomplete(-, 1)
    %e    gamma_incomplete(1, 1)                          2
  + ---------------------------- - ----------------------------
                 2                              4
      1/4               1/4
    %e    sqrt(%pi)   %e
  + --------------- - -----
           4            2
 }}}
 It would seem to be an interface problem that already exists in some form
 in Sage 6.2 and manifests itself more relentlessly with the Maxima 5.33.0
 spkg I am making.
