I have just installed Sage 3.4, database_gap-4.4.10, and
gap_packages-4.4.10_6.  It seems that I can't access 'SmallGroups':

sage: gap.eval('SmallGroups(8,1)')

I am running Sage under Fedora 10, 32bit.  The command "sage -i"
seemed to install the two packages without complaint.

So is this still a known problem?
