New description:
I'm getting noise on doctests on Solaris. One is straightforward to fix
(chmm.pyx). For the other (time_series.pyx), on Solaris I get
{{{
sage -t -long devel/sage/sage/finance/time_series.pyx
**********************************************************************
File "/home/palmieri/t2/sage-4.4.alpha2/devel/sage-
main/sage/finance/time_series.pyx", line 691:
sage: finance.TimeSeries([1,0,3]).log()
Expected:
[0.0000, -inf, 1.0986]
Got:
[0.0000, -Inf, 1.0986]
**********************************************************************
}}}
So instead of {{{-inf}}}, it's printing {{{-Inf}}}. However, if I do
{{{
sage: finance.TimeSeries([1,0,3]).log()[1]
}}}
then I see {{{-inf}}}. So I've changed the doctest to use this instead.

Comment(by jhpalmieri):
I accidentally added this to the description of the ticket instead of to
my reply about the change to chmm:
Oh, and actually reading the docstring, there is an optional argument eps
which looks something like an error bound. By default it's set to 1e-12,
and it looks to me like I've added the dots in the 12th place, so now I
really don't have any problem with this change.
