Comment (by pbruin):
One can avoid the crash by taking the limit for ''x'' -> 0 from above, but
then the value of the limit is wrong, again due to the `domain: complex`
setting:
{{{
sage: f(x) = (x^x - sin(x)^sin(x))/(x^3*log(x))
sage: f.limit(x=0, dir='plus')
x |--> -Infinity
sage: sage.calculus.calculus.maxima('domain: real')
real
sage: f.limit(x=0, dir='plus')
x |--> 1/6
}}}
Plotting the function suggests that 1/6 is the correct value.
