> the `f(x)` is expanded into a mutable matrix, but this prevents
> evaluation because Pynac is called by `Expression._sub_` and wants to do
> hashes on the matrix for comparison reasons. However, for the purpose of
> subtraction dealing with a mutable matrix is completely unnecessary. So a
> solution would be to turn mutable objects immutable before doing
> arithmetics in `Expression` or in Pynac.
>
> While the most elegant solution to the specific problem would be an
> expression converter, applied before calling Pynac's `relational_to_bool`
> this will not solve other instances like
> {{{
> sage: f(x)=matrix(ZZ, 8)
> sage: f(x)*1
> ...
> TypeError: mutable matrices are unhashable
> }}}

a Pynac bug manifests, see https://github.com/pynac/pynac/issues/34
This ticket should provide doctests, it depends on pynac-0.4.2/0.3.9.2.
