------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
John Palmieri has built most of Sage on the host fulvia, but there are a
number of tests related to sympow that are failing. The summary at the end
shows:
{{{
The following tests failed:
<snip>
sage -t -long devel/sage/sage/lfunctions/sympow.py # 13 doctests
failed
<snip>
Total time for all tests: 7305.2 seconds
}}}
Looking at the source code, it is not valid C, so it's quite possible the
code gets mis-compiled. In fact, IMHO, gcc should reject the code - just
as the Sun compiler does.
I'll try to work out what was intended and see if the code can be re-
written in a way that compiles with the Sun compiler, in which case gcc
should have more chance of generating correct code.
