Comment (by nbruin):

 Replying to [comment:8 rws]:
 > which is the same you get with `hash(matrix())`, so quite sensible. What
 more? Why are matrices generated by `vector*vector` (the original case) or
 those in a function definition (like above) mutable at all?

 Because the default for matrix creation is to create a mutable matrix.
 That's because a mutable matrix can be turned into an immutable one, but
 not the other way around (that requires copying the matrix to a new,
 mutable, one). That default is probably inconvenient for symbolics.

 Are you sure this is the sole problem, though? If we try this:
 {{{
 def imm_mt(*args,**kwargs):
     M=matrix(*args,**kwargs)
     M.set_immutable()
     return M
 f(x)=imm_mt()
 }}}
 then we get
 {{{
 sage: hash(f(x))
 0
 }}}
 but `bool(f(x)==f(x))` still crashes. is it trying to see if
 `f(x)*f(x)^(-1)` is one?
