Comment (by kcrisman):
I don't see why one couldn't just do the usual thing we do in `spkg-
install` for unusual systems - just a check for Darwin with version 8 or 9
or something. Or even check for m4's existence and version (can this be
done easily?). In either case, just don't do
{{{
- --enable-interfaces=c++ --disable-fpmath
+ --enable-interfaces="c++ c" --disable-fpmath
}}}
for that specific situation, maybe echoing a message. Then #12666 can
raise an error message if one doesn't have the correct header, saying
"please get a system with a recent enough m4, do `sage -i ppl`, and then
reinstall this optional spkg".
