 But first it has to build mpir, and unfortunately the standard gcc that
 comes with FreeBSD-8.x broke.  I haven't tried clang which comes with
 FreeBSD-9.x.

 reason; `configure` just bails out because MPIR thinks it was [a broken
 version of] GCC).  There is some Sage trac ticket I was going to fix this,
 but I haven't even uploaded a patch nor submitted it upstream yet.  (I do
 have patches to upstream's `configure[.in]` ''somewhere^TM^''...  With
 these, `make check` passed for me with different versions of `clang`, and
 even on MacOS X, with Apple's dead old 1.7 version IIRC.)

 I at least found the ticket now:  #13948
