Comment (by kcrisman):

 {{{
 sage: assume(u>0)
 sage: integrate(x*cos(x^3),x,0,u)
 -1/3*gamma(2/3) + 1/6*gamma(2/3, -I*u^3) + 1/6*gamma(2/3, I*u^3)
 }}}
 To compare the "right" answer, do
 {{{
 sage: f(u) = integrate(x*cos(x^3),x,0,u)
 sage: plot(f,(u,0,2*pi))
 sage: plot(lambda u: numerical_integral(x*cos(x^3),0,u)[0],(u,0,2*pi))
 }}}
 Note how they don't really look quite similar, not really a branch cut
 thing? Also, in Maxima
 {{{
 (%i2) display2d:false;
 (%o2) false
 (%i3) f:integrate(x*cos(x^3),x);
 (%o3) (gamma_incomplete(2/3,%i*x^3)+gamma_incomplete(2/3,-%i*x^3))/6
 (%i5) diff(f,x);
 (%o5) (-3*%i*x*%e^(%i*x^3)/(-1)^(1/6)-3*%i*x*%e^-(%i*x^3)/(-1)^(1/6))/6
 }}}
