Yes, new value yy + xx is better than the old conjugate(yy) + conjugate
(xx). If you
would change the user documentation, that would be good.

I think this would be OK--maybe prepend something like "To prevent messages
from "rat", we'll
globally set ratprint to false for the linear algebra example."

Thanks for working on this.
