Comment (by rws):
With #8734 `I` can result from a Sage `I` variable, from Maxima `%i`, or
from Maxima `i` which is only creatable from Sage via the Maxima
interface. But not from any trick involving the Sage variable `i` due to
the protection via `_SAGE_VAR_`. The `i` case is why Jason said #8734 will
help, but not totally solve the problem.
I don't know why the `i^2` example failed at all, and when exactly it
stopped failing. Maybe it didn't fail; certainly nobody posted a
confirmation message. And certainly we all confirmed the sefms snippet
because that's what the ticket presented.
