New description:

 It seems the old version of `sage-location` does not properly fix GCC,
 leading to problems with upgrading in the following scenario:
  1. install sage-5.3 from source, including Sage's GCC
  2. relocate Sage
  3. rebuild PPL
  4. rebuild !LinBox

 The `sage-location` in `sage-5.4.1.rc0` does things properly, but that's
 not sufficient for upgrading.
