Comment (by kcrisman):

 Or maybe I'm not.
 {{{
 sage.functions.other.Ei : lambda X : [[max_gamma_incomplete], 0, X]
 }}}
 which is [http://hg.sagemath.org/sage-
 main/file/9ab4ab6e12d0/sage/interfaces/maxima_lib.py#l1358 here].  I was
 kind of wondering about this in #11143, but since that didn't touch that I
 figured it was okay.
 [http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ExponentialIntegral.html Mathworld] seems to
 indicate that this conversion isn't quite right, and who knows what this
 would imply for complex `Z`.  Yikes.
