When I merged mameurer's PR I was careful not to delete data. I basically 
used the current master version and just added the new methods of 
mameurer's PR.

There is only one test failing, because .jordan_form( ) on a diagonalizable 
matrix does not keep the same order as .diagonalize( ).

I think I'll open a PR this evening.
