Congratulations :)
Building Sage is surprisingly easy once you are willing to invest the
CPU time and you will also get a Sage that is custom tuned to your
setup.

Ok.

Well, if you ever run into upgrade trouble you can send a link to the
gzipped install.log from $SAGE_ROOT and we should be able to diagnose
pretty much any upgrade issue. Doing this with a binary is not
possible to that extend and having mismatching XCode releases for
example is much of the potential source for trouble.
