It worked for me in my Mac OS X terminal, though you can barely tell that it is there in 10 pt Monaco or 12 pt Courier New font. Increasing the size prints it perfectly though. I think that is related to the font that I use though. For example, 10 pt Monaco (only 10 pt) prints some Russian character for ℯ (e), and an upside down & in any size for ⅈ (i). Courier New does the upside down & too, so it may be a SymPy bug.
I'm hoping that the new Menlo font in Snow Leopard is better than the presently available monospace fonts.
