Comment(by was):
There is definitely a problem. I tried rebuilding with the new maxima and
ecl packages (in sage-4.5.alpha4) and had a huge number of failures.
Building the same sage-4.5.alpha4, but with the older maxima and ecl
packages entirely fixes the problem.

That could be. If true, it definitely means that we have a serious bug in
Sage -- not our filesystem. Here's my build setup:
* I make a symlink: /home/wstein/build -> /scratch/wstein/build
* I build in /home/wstein/build.
