New description:

 It would be useful to copy a linear program, so that one doesn't have to
 recopy the constraints. Unfortunately, this crashes Sage, and pretty hard.

 {{{
 sage: eqs = MixedIntegerLinearProgram()
 sage: eqs2 = copy(eqs)
 sage: eqs2

 ------------------------------------------------------------
 Unhandled SIGSEGV: A segmentation fault occurred in Sage.
 This probably occurred because a *compiled* component
 of Sage has a bug in it (typically accessing invalid memory)
 and is not properly wrapped with sig_on(), sig_off().
 You might want to run Sage under gdb with 'sage -gdb' to debug this.
 Sage will now terminate (sorry).
