Comment:

 More clearly, here's the "bug" part of this.  The documentation says that
 the function takes a symbolic function, but clearly does not:

 {{{
 sage: f(x,y) = (100 - x) + (1000 - y)
 sage: c = x + y - 479
 sage: minimize_constrained(f,[c],[100,300])
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 UnboundLocalError                         Traceback (most recent call
