Comment:

 The patch looks really good and addresses an important problem. I have a
 few minor remarks/questions before I give a positive review:

  * Can we change the test in sage.functions.other.sqrt() to work without
 importing numpy? I didn't check the effects on performance, but `sqrt()`
 gets used a lot, so keeping it free of `numpy` unless absolutely necessary
 would be good.
  * All the examples in the doctests are for functions with a single
 argument. Is there any reason to move the check in
 `sage.symbolic.function.Function.__call__()` to try all arguments? We
 should also consider moving this check to
 `sage.symbolic.function.BuiltinFunction.__call__()`.
