Comment(by mpatel):

 What happens if you run `scilab -nogui` at a shell prompt?  It possible
 that Sage can't find `scilab` in the search `PATH`.

 To get some additional data:
 {{{
 #!sh
 cd $SAGE_ROOT
 sage -t -optional devel/sage/sage/interfaces/scilab.py
 }}}
 With Scilab 5.2.0 on Linux, I get failures at lines 19, 123, 157, 340, and
 505.  With the worksheet system set to `sage` (in the drop-down menu),
 evaluating `scilab('1 + 1')`, `scilab.eval('1 + 1')`, or
 {{{
 #!py
 %scilab
 1 + 1
 }}}
 gives the expected answer, as does evaluating `1+1` with the worksheet
 system set to `scilab`.  Evaluating `scilab('1 + 1')` and `scilab.eval('1
 + 1')` at the Sage command-line also works.
