Hi Henry,

the problem is that sage-4.6.2 that you are trying to install is
python-2.6 only. If you have python-2.6 on your machine and want
to have stuff compiled for 2.6, 2.7 and 3.1 you have to add the following 
in make.conf:
USE_PYTHON="2.6 2.7 3.1"

Note that we are working on making sage 4.7 python 2.7.
