Is `%inf` a normal Maxima expression, though? They just use `inf` and
`minf`, I believe, which we replace correctly.

`sage.misc.multireplace` and use that on a symtable with additional
entries `'e':'_e', 'i':'_i', 'I':'_I'`.
I guess one could do so... I'm just trying to imagine cases in which this
would be necessary due only to Sage usage. If someone uses Maxima to
create variables it's quite different.
