I finally managed to build sage-4.0.rc0 from source on a Sun Blade 2000 
running Solaris 10 update 6. The machine has 8 GB of RAM.

I used the Solaris tool chain from the web site, but had to edit a 
couple of files which had the hard-coded links to Michael's directory - 
discussed before).

uname -a
SunOS kestrel 5.10 Generic_137137-09 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-1000 Solaris


(The machine is a Blade 2000, but the motherboard is the same as used in 
a Blade 1000. In fact, I do not think there is any practical difference 
between the Blade 1000 and Blade 2000 other than the colour of the box.)


drkir...@kestrel:[~/sage/sage-4.0.rc0] $ ./sage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 4.0.rc0, Release Date: 2009-05-21                     |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information.        |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sage: 2^8
256

So it is at least working somewhat.

How do I run the self-tests, now Sage is built?
