Comment:

 This ticket includes three files.  sage-4515-sage_c_bug.patch fixes a bug
 in the sage-sage script where {{{sage -c "..."}}} didn't correctly run the
 sage_setup function in sage-sage.   The second file
 sage-4515-sage_starts.patch adds a sage-starts script, that verifies that
 ones sage actually starts up.  The third file {{{makefile}}} replaces the
 makefile in SAGE_ROOT by a new one that runs sage-starts before running
 any of the make check targets.

 To test this patch, take any sage install, edit the file
 SAGE_ROOT/local/lib/sage-current-location.txt and put some random crap in
 there.  Then do
 {{{
 sage -c "2+2"
 }}}
 and see that the current location stuff gets updated.  Corrupt sage-
 current-location.txgt again, then do
 {{{
 make check  # or any other target
 }}}
 and verify that the location stuff gets updated.
