 See #9879, where it is now possible to 'hold' a symbolic expression:
 {{{
 sage: a = (pi/12).tan(hold=True)
 sage: a
 tan(1/12*pi)
 }}}

 However, without going through Maxima and `a.simplify()`, it isn't clear
 how to get the actual answer for this.  Either by changing `simplify()` to
 try simplifying through Pynac first, or by adding something like an
 `a.eval()` method, we should make that possible without Maxima.
