Comment (by stephen):
I am having some significant troubles building sage-5.9.beta5. It is due
to the fact that there is more than one version of the compiler being
used, and various libraries either being built or not being built, or
linkers getting pre-built libraries from the wrong place. The exact
nature of the error depends upon whether I use the FreeBSD versions of
gcc-4.7 and atlas or the versions that come with sage. Both give errors,
but different errors. I know that given time I can work it out, but I
don't have time right now.
For this reason, when the release version of sage-5.9 comes out, I am
unlikely to upgrade the sage port. We should delay in adding FreeBSD as a
supported platform.
Also, for ANY version of the gcc-4.7 compiler to work (either the one that
comes with FreeBSD, or the one that comes with sage), the following patch
is needed for FreeBSD:
