Comment (by nbruin):
It's the same number, arrived at via two different computations. Why do
you expect that Sage would end up representing them with the same
intervals? If you want a particular number of digits, ask for it. If you
don't get the number of digits you ask for then there is something to work
on, but I don't think QQbar has a responsibility to work internally with a
particular number of digits -- only with enough digits to distinguish
numbers uniquely (if taken together with their minimal polynomials)
