 Replying to [comment:45 drkirkby]:
 > Are you sure its a good idea to merge the changes from #9598? IMHO, it
 would be better to make these tickets separate, as:

 Dave, it's just the question of turning a particular interface on.
 There should be no problems --- most of all cause there is 0 exposure of
 this to any Sage code at the moment.

 The next step would be to have a proper test for this somewhere...

 >
 >  * #9598 has not been tested properly.
 >  * There is no documentation for the updates, so nothing to indicate
 that cvxopt can be used with the glpk solver.
 >  * There are no additional doc tests which show the output of using
 cvxopt with the glpk solver.
 >  * The author does not know if it's platform dependent or not, and says
 he has only checked on OS X.

 > I've marked #9598 as needs work, as based on what I deduce, it does need
 work before being what I personally consider acceptable.
