I'm curious to hear what you observe.  I can indeed confirm that this
was the problem on my end.  Building Sage with SAGE_FORTRAN and
SAGE_FORTRAN_LIB set to the system-wide gfortran avoids the error in
building R, but results in complex(1+I) inexplicably changing the sign
of the imaginary part.  After I unset those variables (and actually
also uninstalled the system-wide gfortran) I had to copy the system's
libgcc_s.so to build R successfully, but then I got a properly-running
Sage.

Note that this only happens to me on 32-bit machines.  On 64-bits,
everything builds and tests fine with the system-wide gfortran.

I think that until we figure out what the exact problem is (and how to
fix it), we should hold off on
