As Francois said, I think it might really be a sage-on-gentoo issue. I 
build and run sage from git, on gentoo linux (on two separate 
installations), and have not come across this issue. I do have the BROWSER 
variable set to my own (non-standard) script. And that is used by sage.

~» echo $BROWSER
/usr/local/bin/firox
