Comment (by mmezzarobba):

 Replying to [comment:5 pbruin]:
 > This happens because `QQbar` does not coerce into `InfinityRing` (which
 is probably correct), and the coercion model does not discover
 `UnsignedInfinityRing` as a common parent.  (Note that `a <
 unsigned_infinity` does work correctly.)

 In fact it could be argued that the result is correct, since `QQbar` is
 not ordered, and `AA(a) < infinity` works. I'm tempted to suggest closing
 the ticket as wontfix.
