SymPy gives I*pi for sqrt(-12*polylog(2,-1)). According to
http://docs.sympy.org/latest/modules/functions/special.html#sympy.functions.special.zeta_functions.polylog,
polylog(s, -1) is the same as dirichlet_eta(s). The definitions for
polylog in the sympy and mpmath docs look the same, so is SymPy wrong
here, or am I missing something (WolframAlpha seems to agree with
mpmath)?
