Comment:

 Without the patch, when building the PDF version of the reference manual
 for Sage 4.4.3, I got:
 {{{
 ! Undefined control sequence.
 l.217693 ...als}(\mathrm{pos}_{i+1})]_{1 \leqslant
                                                    i \leqslant n}$
 }}}
 Note that the HTML version built OK. With the patch, the PDF version built
 successfully on these machines:

  * sage.math, Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS, with latex and pdflatex
  * bsd.math, Mac OS X 10.6.3, with latex and pdflatex

 But failed on these machines:

  * eno.skynet, Fedora 12, no latex or pdflatex
  * rh.math, Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, no latex or pdflatex
  * rosemary.math, Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.5, with latex and
 pdflatex, but I got the following error when building the PDF version:
  {{{
 ! LaTeX Error: File `utf8x.def' not found.
  }}}
  This also happens without the patch. The issue is more likely due to the
 LaTeX installation on rosemary.math.

 As for `doc/common/macros.tex`, that file was during the days when Sage's
 documentation followed how Python did it. Since switching over to Sphinx,
 we don't need that file any more.
