Yes I was just coming to post. This is an error in sympy if you use
the variable name 'N'

so do this:

(1 + x).subs(dict(x=1, y=2, N=3))

which complains about N being a function, so I imagine the fix is to
import the N function in the subs namespace with an underscore...
maybe this is already fixed. I am using 0.6.4
