Comment (by leif):

 Replying to [comment:3 dimpase]:
 > should we mention that the list of applications not to build gcc is
 necessary, but not always sufficient (your system gcc might be broken).

 Well, that's a rather unusual case (and I'm not aware of any distro where
 this would currently happen), and mentioned in the previous section
 [http://sagemath.org/doc/installation/source.html#fortran-and-compiler-
 suites Fortran and compiler suites].  The (second) list of packages is
 sufficient in any case, whether Sage's GCC will get built or not.
