Comment(by drkirkby):

 Thank you for the feedback. I'll make the couple o changes you suggest. I
 take your point about needing an expert of the build process. William and
 I wrote this many years ago, but its changed a lot since then.

 If you have some spare time, (and I know building Sage can take some
 time), could you try a build with the sage-env script? First unpack the
 sources, then exchange spkg/base/sage-env for this one before trying a
 build. The build should proceed as normal. You might notice an extra -Wall
 or -g flag here or there, but there should be no huge changes.

 What it will give is a bunch of variables that can at a later date be used
 inside files like spkg-install.

 Dave
