 It took me a bit to figure out what was wrong after getting
 {{{
 ***************************************************************
 Error building Sage.

 The following package(s) may have failed to build:

 The build directory may contain configuration files and other potentially
 helpful information. WARNING: if you now run 'make' again, the build
 directory will, by default, be deleted. Set the environment variable
 SAGE_KEEP_BUILT_SPKGS to 'yes' to prevent this.
 }}}
 And what was wrong was that "package sage-6.3.beta4" failed to build (due
 to wrong $HOME where Cython cache was supposed to live) - is it actually
 considered a package? On the one hand there is no sage in upstream or
 build/pkgs, on the other - there is log/pkgs/sage-*

 In any case it would be nice to have a more clear error message - usually
 it gives paths to the log files that contain the error message in the end,
 as looking for errors on the console or install.log is inconvenient for
 parallel builds. Looks like #14263 just missed this particular case.
