Sorry, it still doesn't work for me.  The problem is that you have 
abstractalgebra nested twice.  Also, I think you might need to add something to 
the main sympy/__init__.py (assuming we want this imported with from sympy 
import *; do we?).  

The ./bin/strip_whitespace utility will help with the other failure.  Setup 
your text editor to use 4 spaces instead of tabs:
