Comment:

 I'm attaching a patch that fixes all but one of the doctest failures
 observed on sage.math and other Linux machines.

 Most of these are very simple fixes due to (a) change of formatting of
 Maxima output or (b) new functionality in Maxima.  For anything else I
 have tried to comment on my fix in the corresponding file.  Where new
 answers appear due to new functionality, I checked these answers against
 Wolfram Alpha (yes, I know; I feel weird about this).

 As far as I know there is one remaining doctest failures:

 {{{
 sage -t  "expression.pyx"
 **********************************************************************
 File "/opt/sage-4.1.1/devel/sage-main/sage/symbolic/expression.pyx", line
 5541:
     sage: solve(Q*sqrt(Q^2 + 2) - 1,Q)
 Expected:
     [Q == 1/sqrt(-sqrt(2) + 1), Q == 1/sqrt(sqrt(2) + 1)]
 Got:
     [Q == 1/sqrt(sqrt(2) + 1)]
 **********************************************************************
 }}}

 I think this is due to the fact that Maxima now only returns the real
 solution, and ignores the complex solution.  I'm not sure what we should
 do about this.


 Note that there are also some timeouts observed by David Kirkby on
 Solaris, but at least some of them are not Maxima-related so it would be
 better to deal with them in separate tickets.

 Finally, this patch puts together a number of tiny patches on a number of
 recently-opened tickets.  I've decided that it is quite a bit easier to
 just referee the whole thing, and definitely easier for me to maintain and
 make necessary modifications to a single patch rather than a dozen of
 them.
