Comment (by dimpase):

 And here is a (hilarious) trace of the communications with M-ca, upon
 calling `mathematica('Pi').n()`.
 {{{
 Mathematica 9.0 for Linux x86 (64-bit)
 Copyright 1988-2013 Wolfram Research, Inc.
 In[1]:= sage0=Pi;
 In[2]:= sage1=0;
 In[3]:= sage2=gen[sage1];
 In[4]:= sage1=prec[sage0];
 In[5]:= sage3=1;
 In[6]:= sage3=10;
 In[7]:= sage3 < sage1
 Out[7]= 10 < prec[Pi]
 In[8]:= sage3 > sage1
 Out[8]= 10 > prec[Pi]
 In[9]:= sage3 == sage1
 Out[9]= 10 == prec[Pi]
 In[10]:= sage3=1.0000;
 In[11]:= sage0
 Out[11]= Pi
 In[12]:= sage3=1.0000*I;
 In[13]:= InputForm[sage0, NumberMarks->False]
 Out[13]//InputForm= Pi
 In[14]:=
 }}}

 certainly, M-ca does not know `gen` or `prec`, and thus the comparisons
 like
 {{{
 In[7]:= sage3 < sage1
 Out[7]= 10 < prec[Pi]
 }}}
 fail miserably. Could anyone advice me on how to get the Sage part of the
 trace?
 I have no clue where these `gen` and `prec` come from.
