I think you are mistaken John. Further up the script is
{{{
cd src
}}}
so another {{{src}}} would be an error.
I do sometimes think it is better to perhaps consider deleting all
patches. I have just updated 'GSL' (#9533). GSL is a much simpler package
I admit. I removed all patches. The new GSL package has built and passed
all self-tests on Cygwin, Linux, HP-UX, !OpenSolaris, OS X and Solaris.
(Sage does not build fully on HP-UX, but enough of it builds to prove that
GSL passes all tests).
I hope at some point you are going to test on 't2'. I simply do not have
the time to test everyones updates on 't2'.
