 There is an example for a lack of precision exception in the doc of
 jordan_form
 {{{
 sage: b = matrix(ZZ,3,3,range(9))
 sage: jf, p = b.jordan_form(RealField(15), transformation=True)
 ...
 ValueError: cannot compute the transformation matrix due to lack of
 precision
 }}}
 But if one increases the precision to the maximum still the same error
 occurs
 {{{
 sage: b = matrix(ZZ,3,3,range(9))
 sage: jf, p = b.jordan_form(RealField(16777216), transformation=True)
 ...
 ValueError: cannot compute the transformation matrix due to lack of
 precision
 }}}
