 With the current interface to the MPC library, you cannot add the symbolic
 i and complex numbers:

 {{{
 sage: from sage.rings.complex_mpc import MPComplexField
 sage: MPC = MPComplexField()
 sage: MPC(1)+i
 ...
 TypeError: unsupported operand parent(s) for '+': 'Complex Field with 53
 bits of precision' and 'Symbolic Ring'

 }}}
 This work with "usual" complex numbers:

 {{{
 sage: CC(1)+i
 1.00000000000000 + 1.00000000000000*I

 }}}
