The problem is that gamma(i) is being interpreted by the parser as a
call to function `gamma' with argument `i', rather than referencing
the variable of the same name. (On some systems, gamma() is defined
the same as lgamma(), i.e., 'the log of the absolute value of the
Gamma function'.)

In future versions, trying to set a variable that conflicts with an
intrinsic function name will flag an input error.
