Rank-nullity theorem states that the rank and the nullity of a matrix add 
up to the number of columns of a matrix. In the following example, the 
matrix defined over R has 5 columns but its rank and nullity add up to 4. 
Is this a bug?

sage: m = matrix(RR,[[1,-1,2,0,3],[2,-1,3,-1,2],[3,0,3,0,6],[6,0,6,-1,9]])

sage: m.nullity()

1

sage: m.ncols()

5

sage: m.rank()

3
