 Replying to [comment:10 ncohen]:
 > Jeroen, please do not ask me to rewrite everything at once. I am no
 magician. As you can see from the source code, the list of packages is
 generated from the output of `sage -standard`, `sage -optional` and `sage
 -experimental`. And yes, all three contain gcc. And `extcode`. The point
 of this branch is that we see the list somewhere, and apparently it also
 helps us notice other bugs. Please do not force me to rewrite everything
 here.

 Well, the logical thing to do would be to first fix `sage --standard`,
 `sage --optional` and `sage --experimental` and ''then'' add the lists to
 the documentation.

 I really do not see the point of adding wrong and outdated lists to the
 documentation.

 And in any case, this is wrong: `singular-3-1`
