The issue is as Justin described above: lib vs. LIB symlinked on a
case insensitive file system leads to trouble. We have been bitten by
the issue before, so we need to resolve the issue somehow. One way in
my opinion would be to used a dmg instead of a tar.gz as a medium for
distrubution.

I don't think so, since the doctest extracts all relevant portions
from the TeX document, it doesn't run latex at all.

All the above are due to the lib vs. LIB issue I assume.

The issue above isn't a doctest failure, it is an error message
printed by the system and it is exactly what one expects to see in
that particular doctest since we try to allocate a very large list in
pari that doesn't fit into physical memory (it it at leasr 100GB in
site). So OSX tells you that it couldn't allocate a chunk of memory
roughly 4 GB in  size which is expected since Sage is still a 32 bit
application on OSX. I am adding the last one to the FAQ right now.

Hope this help,

Michael
