New description:
Running `make` inside a Sage shell doesn't really work well, because
`sage-env` isn't resourced during the build. This breaks upgrading if new
packages are installed in the upgrade which require environment variable
changes. Most of the old work-arounds in `spkg/install` removed in #14715
existed precisely for this reason.
Now that nothing can upgrade '''to''' Sage 6.0, we should make sure that
upgrading '''from''' Sage 6.0 doesn't suffer this problem.
