Replying to [comment:55 jhpalmieri]:
> Or since parallel building is an enhancement, I suppose we could make
bash 3 a prerequisite for it. We would have to write
SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard/deps in a way which works with all versions,
though.
Well, {{{bash}}} 3.0 was released nearly six years ago (and there are pre-
built binaries of it available), so I'd say it ''should'' be OK to make it
a prerequisite - it's central and ubiquitous, and I'd call 2.x deprecated.
But that's only ''my'' opinion, though in general I'd prefer omitting as
much GNUism as possible, trying to stay within POSIX scope (which for
example the shell's {{{trap}}} mechanism is).
[Sorry, maybe too off-topic.]
