Comment(by rossk):

 Theres new (but different errors) :-(

 To confirm them as reproducible, I

 * started from a pristine (backup) build,

 * did only the "sage -python setup.py install" again,

 * started the notebook to confirm scilab dropdown option had been added
 (it was),

 * quit the notebook (and sage) and added the new patch (as per your 4 line
 tip),

 * checked scilab opens ok and can do eye(3,3) then I closed it and

 * restarted Sage and the notebook and selected the scilab option from the
 dropdown

 I then tested both eye(3,3) and 1+1 (both resulted in the following error)
