Comment (by kcrisman):

 > Remove the comment about SAGE_TESTDIR, that variable isn't used anymore.
 Really?  What is the new way to change the test directory?  (This is still
 necessary at times to avoid spaces, as far as I know.)
 > Also mention how one is supposed to run the sage-rebase_sage.bat or
 sage-rebase_sage.sh scripts.
 I sort of purposely didn't, because I don't know how the bat one works.
 Maybe this ticket should depend on #14031?
 > FYI I succesfully built Sage on a 32 bits Windows XP (within a virtual
 machine). Just had to rebase once to build the doc, and tests can be run
 fine!
 Awesome!  I guess my hardware even without a VM is just not powerful
 enough to avoid the eternal rebase.  It's really weird.  It ''is'' an
 older machine.
