Dear Support,

Usually, when I exit Sage after doing something symbolic, I get
something like this:

--------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 3.4, Release Date: 2009-03-11                         |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information.        |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sage: 2+2
4
sage: f(x)=x^2
sage: f(3)
9
sage:
Exiting SAGE (CPU time 0m0.29s, Wall time 2m56.59s).
Exiting spawned Maxima process.

However, sometimes I get something like this:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 3.4, Release Date: 2009-03-11                         |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information.        |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The SAGE install tree may have moved.
Regenerating Python.pyo and .pyc files that hardcode the install PATH
(please wait at
most a few minutes)...
Do not interrupt this.
sage: 2+2

sage: f(x)=x^2
sage: f(3)
9
sage:
Exiting SAGE (CPU time 0m0.32s, Wall time 18m51.32s).
Exiting spawned Gap process.
Exiting spawned Maxima process.

What Gap process?  Could this have something to do with the install
PATH business?  I can't remember under what conditions this has
happened before, but this time it only happened immediately after
upgrade and renaming the folder it was in from sage-3.4.rc0 to
sage-3.4, so maybe it happens after you do a move of that nature.

I don't know if this is a bug per se, but it does seem odd, so I
wanted to point it out in case it's an inefficiency someone can track
down.
