 There is some cases for which the degree method for PermutationGroup
 return a GapElement and not a sage integer.

 {{{
 sage: G = PermutationGroup([[(1,2,3,4)]])
 sage: type(G.degree())
 <type 'int'>
 sage: H = G._gap_()
 sage: H
 Group( [ (1,2,3,4) ] )
 sage: I = PermutationGroup(gap_group=H)
 sage: type(I.degree())
 <class 'sage.interfaces.gap.GapElement'>
 sage: I == G
 True
 sage: G = TransitiveGroup(6,3)
 sage: type(I.degree())
 <class 'sage.interfaces.gap.GapElement'>
 }}}
