Comment(by dimpase):

 Replying to [comment:12 dimpase]:

 > The first test failure, in {{{devel/sage/sage/matrix/matrix2.pyx}}},
 actually shows that 5.26 has improved in quality of such computations. The
 error between the exact and .n() answers has decreased by several orders
 of magnitude.

 Here is the evidence ({{{a}}} is the matrix from the
 {{{matrix/matrix2.pyx}}}, line 10369,  test, {{{b}}} is the exact matrix).
 The following is with the new spkg:
 {{{
 sage: b=matrix([[1,pi],[100,1/100]])
 sage: a=matrix(RR,[[1.,pi.n()],[100.,.01]])
 sage: (a.exp()-b.exp()).norm()
 9.32525865157e-07
 }}}

 The same computation on Sage 4.8 gives {{{(a.exp()-b.exp()).norm()}}}
 equal to {{{0.373383533611}}}
