New description:

 == Hardware & associated software ==

  * Sun Blade 1000
  * 2 x 900 MHz UltraSPARC III+ CPUs
  * 2 GB RAM
  * Solaris 10 03/2005 (first release of Solaris 10)
  * gcc 4.4.3 (uses Sun linker and assembler)

  == Sage version ==
  * 4.3.4.alpha1
  * Patch #8509 removing the -o option to grep to allow optional packages
 to install.

 This builds fully on Solaris 10, and passes all doc tests. This is the
 first version of Sage to do this.

  == The problem with the optional database_gap-4.4.12 ==

  == The solution ==

 spkg-install looks a bit of a mess to me. I will need to try to work out
 what the author intended. SPKG.txt gives no idea of the author or anything
 very useful. It's contents are just:

 {{{
 GAP's databases of finite groups and table of marks.
 }}}

 I need to be a bit of a detective to work this out!!
