The following line slowly expands memory usage:
{{{
sage: while True: _=sin(x).simplify()
}}}
The problem is that this uses the string interface to maxima, which
creates symbols of the form `$SAGE34` with increasing numeric part. This
is a memory leak in Common Lisp, because these symbols get interned.
