Please wait for sage-2.7.1 for source building;
when we'll switch to g95 and things should improve a lot
because of g95's very nice, sensible, compact pre-compiled
binaries (which will be included with SAGE), and Josh
Kantor's work on the numpy distutils stuff.

I intend to release sage-2.7.1 tomorrow.  See
   http://www.sagemath.org:9002/sage_trac/roadmap

That would work.

Yes, they should work fine actually.

Yes, thanks.
