 {{{
 sage: maxima.product(k,k,1,n).sage()
 k^n
 }}}
 That's plain wrong of course and is not what Maxima says on the command
 line. The second argument (the running variable) apparently is completely
 ignored.
 {{{
 %i4) product(k,k,1,n);
                                       n
                                     /===\
                                      ! !
 (%o4)                                ! !  k
                                      ! !
                                     k = 1
 (%i5) product(k,k,1,n), simpproduct;
 (%o5)                                 n!
 }}}
 The solution may depend on implementation of a symbolic product function.
